Then you may want to hang around for the hackfests on the 10th to the 12th. Oh, and look out for talks during the regular conference on things like builder: https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Builder. > Would attending GUADEC benefit me in any way, even if I'm just a plain user? For me, one of the most important things, if not *the* most important, about Free Software is the community. I have made a ton of friends from all over the world thanks to the communities I'm in. > Apart from meeting very nice people. That is the point in the end. Software and technology are just the pretext for the community. That we get together under a shared banner that we've all pretty much chosen freely is pretty rare in this world. In many of the Free Software communities, like GNOME, people accept you for what you've contributed to the community. That's quite a refreshing way to measure someone's character.
