/!\ As of 20250715, FreeBSD has not held any Office Hours in several years. We need volunteers to help restart it.

FreeBSD Office Hours

The FreeBSD Community joins together now and then to host FreeBSD Office Hours 1 sessions.

The first event was held on Wednesday, April 1, 2020, and had a general focus with discussions directed by attendee questions. In addition to General Q&A, we also ran Demo, Tutorial and Topic based Sessions.

For future sessions: if you have a topic you’d like to see covered, please add it below including a preferred date and time.

We are looking for 3 or 4 volunteers to rotate as hosts. If you are interested in helping by running the streaming portion of these events, please get in touch <marketing AT freebsdfoundation DOT org>

Future / Proposed Sessions

From demos and tutorials to straight up Q&A, the goal of these sessions is to help foster development within FreeBSD while raising awareness of the Project.

/!\ no OfficeHours are scheduled at this time.

Recordings / Past Sessions

Sessions are recorded and uploaded to the FreeBSD YouTube Channel the day after they are run.
