Dear VLC-Android-developers,

I'm one of the organizers of FOSS Backstage Design 
<https://24.foss-backstage.de/#fossdesign> — a sub-event of FOSS 
Backstage, <https://24.foss-backstage.de> where we want to gather 
everyone interested in User Experience & Design in Free and Open Source 
software projects. I'm writing to you today because I think our event 
might be relevant to you.

*About FOSS Backstage Design
*At #FOSSDesign we want to dedicate an entire day to UX & Design in Open 
Source. Building a great user experience for FOSS projects comes with 
special challenges, which is why we think those challenges should be 
discussed at a dedicated event. As a sub-event of FOSS Backstage we want 
to bring people from different FOSS projects together to exchange ideas 
and discuss best practices.

*Where & When
*FOSS Backstage Design will take place at Wikimedia Berlin 
<https://osm.org/go/0MbETqkce?m=&node=2551527703> on March 6th – the day 
after FOSS Backstage 2024.

*Tickets
*Tickets for #FOSSDesign are available either as a 10€ upgrade for your 
FOSS Backstage ticket <https://24.foss-backstage.de/#tickets> or stand 
alone for 25€ granting access only to FOSS Backstage Design through our 
ticket shop <https://24.foss-backstage.de/fossdesign/tickets/> – both 
options of course include food and drinks.

*Call for Participation
*We are looking for a diverse range of sessions and formats all around 
the topic of UX and design in Open Source and Free Software: Whether it 
is a talk on effective design collaboration, an open discussion on how 
to contribute design to OSS, a workshop on accessibility or an 
exhibition of best practice examples – anything is possible. Submissions 
are possible until January 7th, 2024 using this link 
<https://program.foss-backstage.de/ux24/cfp>.

*Sponsoring & Partnership Opportunities
*If you or your organization would like to partner with FOSS Backstage 
Design, we'd be thrilled to send you our sponsoring prospectus and 
discuss the benefits of sponsoring our event. We offer tailor-made 
solutions for every budget and goal — reach out to learn more!

We would love to meet you at the inaugural edition of #FOSSDesign next 
year! If you have any questions about our event, please don't hesitate 
to reach out.

Best,
Sven
