FOSDEM 2015 MySQL & Friends Devroom Schedule

The devroom’s schedule is now published on Fosdem’s website.

As you can see, it will be a heavy day full of good content. You can also notice that there won’t be any lunch-time break.

We advise you to then bring your lunch (like a sandwich) with you in the room and eat it between talks or prepare in advance when you will take your break during a talk you don’t want to attend (is it even possible ?).
