## What is FOSDEM?

Schedule  app for FOSDEM, the European Open Source conference. 
The conference is held in Brussels every year at the beginning of February. 
This app gives you an up to data schedule and you can star your favorite talk so you can see where to go next. 

You can also select the schedules of the previous year, and have them selected as favorites (thumbs-up) as well. 

If there is video available of the talks of the previous years, you can watch the video, so you have something to watch in case the room of your preferred talk is too full.

This is donationware. The previous developers (Adam Ziolkowski and Leon Handreke) would like to have some beer donated at the conference. Me, (Johan Henselmans), I prefer a nice cup of coffee,  some 'Belgische frieten' and a reserved seat in some talks.

### 1/5 — Stopped working just when it’s most needed

*2020-02-01, version 1.2.2*

Half way through FOSDEM and now the app just quits and won’t open.

### 5/5 — Kudos to the developer

*2020-02-01, version 1.2.2*

The last update has fixed a major flaw. The app is very usable and does the job. This is the only app available on iOS and I really appreciate the effort. Thank you.

### 2/5 — Poorly supported and bugged

*2018-02-04, version 1.2.1*

The app hasn’t been updated in 3 years, it keeps loosing all the talks I bookmark.

### 2/5 — Want to like, but marred by major flaws

*2016-01-24, version 1.2.1*

You open this app expecting to see something/anything. You have to select the year icon then find 2016.

Once you get past that,you might enthusiastically start starring the talks you wish to see, but it won't help because the app will lose them. Sigh.

### 1/5 — Doesn't save favourites

*2016-01-24, version 1.2.1*

After I exit any favourites are lost which sadly makes it pretty much useless. If this was fixed it would be excellent
