LINUX GAMING
While Linux gaming is quickly gaining ground, it seems not many are interested this year in speaking about open-source game development.

Nils Kneuper sent out a notice today that the game development room for FOSDEM 2014 is still seeking speakers. The "Call for Proposals" has been out for more than the past month, but to date they've only received two proposals for the two-day event taking place the first weekend of February in Brussels.

While the game development "DevRoom" happens annually at FOSDEM, it seems this year there isn't much interest. If more proposals aren't submitted in the next week, the development room might end up being cancelled.

The game development CFP can be found via this mailing list message. More FOSDEM details can be found via FOSDEM.org. FOSDEM remains one of my favorite -- and best -- open-source/Linux developer events in the world.
