So I'm wondering whether there is still enough interest for a traditional WineConf, or whether we should try a different approach, to maybe capture some of the recent excitement around gaming and downstream uses of Wine in general.
I'll come to whatever event, I just skipped 2022 due to urgent family concerns.
I'll concur to Stefan. I'll go to whatever event. The 2022 WineConf I had to skip due delays with the visa.
I am all for changing the setup though - it has mostly turned to preaching to the choir with mostly the same people all the time. Of course we tried to extend the attendees, with mixed results. I think integrating with FOSDEM worked well, and I'd advocate for repeating that every now and then. (Actually showing up at FOSDEM, not making it an excuse to drink beer)
To attract users like the Proton users we would probably need to go to one of the games conventions. But I doubt we can afford that.
