Montreal, a city with an affinity for events, will also be the stomping grounds for this year's edition of X.Org Developer's Conference! Held from October 9 to 11, this year's conference will have a slightly different format consisting of two full days of dedicated talks and the third day will be for workshops, meetings, and hacking. Co-located with the GStreamer Conference & Hackfest 2024, this open graphics event will be held at the Concordia University Conference Centre and is free to attend.
As big believers in all things open source, we're thrilled to be a Platinum Sponsor to support the open graphics community. From updates on NVK and Panfrost, to utilizing Rust for porting, our graphics team has 7 talks to present!
