Fosdem was a total hysteria this year! The hackable-devices stall has known is first totally crowded place, during the 2 days of the event. It must be said that there was plenty of interesting things to see.
Then Lekernel, which installed equipment for demonstration of Milkymist, the free FPGA project, and Wim, with among other things, soekris net 5501-70, Freerunners and Makerbot supplies.
Adrian Bowyer and members of the Reprap team were also here, bringing 4 prototypes for the event, including one shouting at full capacity all day long to ensure the show! (many thanks to Erik de Bruijn for that).
Finally, Fabienne, from hardhack, and me, both with Makerbots, explaining all day long the differences between theses two CNC projects and "fighting" not to have the table bumped into. Epic moments from a calibration point of view! :)
Well, a totally exhausting meeting, but so exciting. I'm really happy to see how this community is trully openminded and fun. Thanks a lot, you guys seriously roxx!

Fosdem was a total hysteria this year! The hackable-devices stall has known is first totally crowded place, during the 2 days of the event. It must be said that there was plenty of interesting things to see.
First Victor and David, the Tuxbrain guys, demonstrating plenty of devices like the NanoNote, Sharp netwalker, Arduino Boards, Freerunners etc.. Asthro join them for a Freerunner buzzfix party on saturday, adding more people to the crowd.
