Join us the day before LibrePlanet to help us improve free software user experience!

SpinachCon is an afternoon-long open house aimed at improving the experience of using and contributing to free software projects. Volunteers come by and try out basic tasks provided by participating projects. This year, we'll be doing two types of testing: user testing and new contributor testing. Volunteers can try out either or both types of testing. Every project at the event will have at least two people representing it, so volunteers can get to know - and get help from - the people behind the projects.

This year's participating projects:

Public Lab

Dataverse

MediaGoblin

Sandstorm

Inkscape

Sponsorship has been generously provided by the Open Invention Network and Sandstorm.io-- thanks!

This is SpinachCon's second year. If you'd like to learn more about the event, check out this blog post.

Please RSVP here, or by emailing spinachcon@gmail.com directly. Thanks!
