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.
