glibc Dev Clinic: Write Your First Patch With Us
Arjun Shankar

Roll up your sleeves and prepare to write and submit your first glibc patch! Last year, I gave a talk about this. This year we go hands on.

The goal: produce small, incremental improvements and get new names on the commit log.

We will pick the low hanging fruit first: typos, doc fixes, improving existing tests and writing new ones. Experienced C hackers are also welcome. Perhaps we fix a bug or three?

I'll provide:

  • A solid introduction to glibc and its codebase
  • A list of well defined, small, individual problems for everyone to solve (some very easy)
  • Page sized cheat-sheets on how to work on each of the problems

You'll bring: A Linux laptop with the necessary tools installed (I'll provide details in advance), some understanding of git, and maybe a bit of comfort with C and Makefiles.

Coffee enthusiasts Meetup
Lenka Bocincova, Nicola Sella, Arjun Shankar

Do you love coffee? Do you enjoy trying new beans or experimenting with different brewing methods? If yes, we would be happy to meet new friends during DevConf.cz that have the same hobby as we have!

Let’s meet, brew some coffee together and exchange our tips and tricks about coffee.

We'll bring some of the beans we love and make a lot of coffee using various methods (V60, Aeropress, Moka, French Press etc.). If you have your favorite coffee beans or method you want to show your coffee friends during DevConf.cz, we encourage you to bring it to this meetup as well!
