This is the replacement event for X2Go: The Gathering 2021, which had to be cancelled due to illness of several core members.

Location: 100% online

Date: 2022-11-28 to 2022-12-02

Event type: 5 days, but evening-only - starting around 18:00 CET, with one or two short talks/presentations (around 20-30 minutes each), followed by discussions, jointly working on open tasks, bugsquashing, “open coding”

Sponsorship: As this is a purely virtual event, we are not in need for event sponsors. However, X2Go could still use some more donations to cover hosting costs, so if you have a few $$$/€€€/£££ to spare, you can find our donation forms here:

• English-language donation form
• German-language donation form

Join us here: Link will be published here shortly before 18:00 CET (Jitsi Meet, requires Chrome/Chromium/Brave, please do not use Firefox unless you really have no other choice)

Recordings Monday - Day 1

Agenda for tonight

1. Try out/set up streaming and recording equipment (Stefan, Juri)
2. probably either work on X2Go-TCE/X2Go-TCE-Pi or discuss hosting options, depending on who actually shows up

A separate, virtual event called X2Go: The Spread 2022 will take place from 2022-12-12 to 2022-12-16 (i.e. roughly two weeks from 2021.5). Details for that event can be found here.
