Sorry, I have to correct myself, on my posts concerning #FOSDEM2024 I told that this year was my first time giving talks on #FOSDEM, but I actually did the very first time, on #FOSDEM2002!!
It was about my first 1.5 years of work on printing with free software. In the photo you see the slides with my conclusions, summarizing the state-of-the-art of printing ...
#CUPS was in a good position in the race but actually needed some more time to actually conquer all the distros ...
For my 2 talks on the #FOSDEM #FOSDEM2024 everything is linked into the announcement/description pages now: Slides a ODP and PDF, and the video:
