INTRODUCTION BSDCon Brazil (http://www.bsdcon.com.br) is the Brazilian BSD powered and flavored conference held in Brazil. The first edition was in 2003 (https://www.freebsd.org/events/events2003.html) and it brought together a great mix of *BSD developers and users for a nice blend of both developer-centric and user-centric presentations, and activities. The 2015 edition will be even more fun! This year BSDCon Brazil will be held from 9-10th October 2015, in Fortaleza (CE). The very first edition with people coming to Brazil from all around the globe! OFFICIAL CALL We've got extra room for the conference!
