I'm more than excited and hope that the final organizing phase will go down smoothly. Here are important updates and informations for the speakers. It has not been publicly announced via the news or the mastodon channel yet, but here are the freshest updates: - On Monday evening, at 8 pm we are going to have a Keynote by Dr Richard Stallman. - On Saturday evening, I managed to organize a venue for an official after party, it's at Desi?https://desi-nbg.de While I'm super excited about the possibility, I don't have yet organized a line-up. This is a great opportunity for artists, DJs and visual performers of our community to present themselves, please reach out. A separate call for this will be issued. - The State of Libre Graphics presentation is happening. We are finalizing the information and are going to publish a separate call for slides. The repository for contributions will be:?https://github.com/libregraphicsmeeting/state-of-lg-2025 - Call for locations/local organizers 2026 most importantly but also 2027. A part of the concept of the LGM is that it is at different locations each year. While we are going to look into the future of the LGM at the upcoming edition, it is out of a question that we need organizers for the future. Please leave a note and ideally come to the LGM if you consider becoming an organizer in the future. A separate call for this will be published. - Well be looking for some helping hands at the event, let me know if you are available to take over a shift or two. Presenter Notes: Please try to stick to 20 minutes duration! The program has 25 minutes slots, but that includes transition times and if possible a short QA. I did not get feedback from everyone I informed about their presentation at the LGM. If you did not yet, please drop me a short line if you are presenting according to the program. There is also a possibility to organize a remote presentation, but we need to know before! So far this has not been planned an we won't have the capability without . I wrote some invitation letters for visa applications, if you need one, please notify me ASAP. The donations campaign and the sponsoring campaign are not going well. While the window for sponsoring will close sooner, donations can be made during the running event. If you know potential sponsors, please let them know!?https://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2025/sponsors/?And please don't be shy to inform your communities about the LGM and the donations campaign.?https://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2025/donate/?These are the sources for the funds of the travel reimbursement program.
