I'm trying to remember when my first #Fosdem was. It was either in 2006 or 2007.
The friday beer event was at le roy d'espagne.
I slept in the office of @wouter in mechelen.
There was no building K. I think building U wasn't in use for talks, but maybe for LPI exams.
Can anyone help me figure out when it was ?
@svuorela
The last time I could have someone sleep in that office for FOSDEM was in 2012, as that year the landlord passed away and our rent was not renewed.
I vaguely remember it was not that year that you slept there though. Maybe 2008?
As to the buildings, https://FOSDEM.org/2026/archives has links to all the older, archived FOSDEM sites, you could look at the schedules and see which one meets the building usage you remember?

@gargle @wouter After having studied the schedules, there is almost nothing that rings a bell in the 2006 schedule, but several talks I actually remember from 2007 now that I have gotten my memory a bit more primed.
I was there until '10 and again from '14 onwards (except the online-only ones) making this year probably my 15th - that's an okay conference attendance I guess 😀

Not too bad. For me it's "everything except day one of OSDEM, and all of FOSDEM 2020 and FOSDEM 2023".
The first because I didn't realise what I was going to be missing, the second because I was getting married that month, and the third because I couldn't take time off.
Now that I'm stepping down from organising I will probably start missing more though...
