<br>
I'm glad to invite you to VDD 2023 in Dublin, at the end of next month.<br>
I wish I could have invited you to Iceland, but it proved too difficult to organize over there.<br>
I'll do better next year, I promise :)<br>
<br>
What is it?<br>
---------------<br>
The format of the conference is going to be similar to the previous years:<br>
- Friday 22nd, community day in Dublin, where we'll do some activities (will be communicated later) and then drinks on the evening<br>
- Saturday 23rd, start of the actual conferences, with talks by members from our communities on very technical subjects, in the morning, until lunch.<br>
- Saturday afternoon, technical sessions (VLC and FFmpeg in // probably) in an unconference manner.<br>
- Saturday night, a dinner in Dublin.<br>
- Sunday morning, lightning talks, for the early people<br>
- Sunday morning and afternoon, workshops and technical sessions (x264, dav1d, VLC mobile, placebo...)<br>
<br>
We will be at Trinity College, in Dublin.<br>
<br>
Who is welcome to join?<br>
