Please indicate if you would like to help in some areas of interest, during the conference!
== Why we could do something ==
It would be nice to have something related to Phorge during FOSDEM 2024, and/or propose a talk in a track, and/or have a cute meetup, triage party, review sprint, etc.
So in this Task we can organize ourselves to understand how to COMPLETELY INVADE FOSDEM in the most efficient way.
== Where we could propose ==
This is the official list of developer rooms:

The most interesting track is probably this one:
Collaboration and Content Management

=== What we could do - Talk proposal 1. (stub from valerio) ===
Proposal title
```
Unpack Phabricator and Welcome Phorge - Forking the Opinionated Open Source Project Manager
```
Proposal abstract
```
Phabricator® was the Libre and Open Source suite for Collaboration on Software Projects. Unfortunately it was discontinued in June 2021.
Sail for adventure through legacy, to community, and let's explore *Phorge*, that is, the fork of Phabricator.
Is Phorge adorable, beloved, superlative? Is Phorge opinionated, over-engineered, Libre and Open Source suite, for Collaboration on Software Projects? Is Phorge supporting Git, Subversion, Mercurial? Is Phorge supporting many components and 60+ shiny happy databases holding hands?
Join this session, and join a thrilling narrative from Facebook and other Serious business, to Easter egg lovers and cowsay generators.
The talk is presented from (originally) a random casual Phorge contributor who becomed Maintainer to share this experience at FOSDEM, especially to newcomers and curious.
For hackers: bring your patch for a fast review.
For newcomers: bring your questions.
## Contents
- is Phorge good for my Organization?
- differences between Phorge and GitLab, GitHub, Launchpad, Mantis, ...
- what's new in Phorge (that is not in Phabricator)
- practical workflows and pitfalls
- how to join the Phorge community
- how to propose code patches
All of this is possible only thanks to the original author of Phabricator: Evan Priestley, that always blesses our code. We will conclude with a thanksgiving to Evan (probably without Evan), a group photo (probably without Evan), and esoteric stickers.
