Romanian Free Software Teams Event @ eLiberatica 2009

A large number of members from Romanian FLOSS (Free/Libre/Open Source Software) communities have participated at eLiberatica since the conference started two years ago. Now you can get in touch with us at our dedicated booth, meet us in person and find out more information about our current and future activities. Here you will find members from Ubuntu local community, ROSEdu, Ceata and Grupul pentru Software Liber.
