An important development in Europe for our community 🫶🏻

Among all the wonderful things connected to participating in any way to a FOSS4G conference, a special place goes to the bespoke *t-shirt*! Some are white, some are blue, some are red, some are purple, with their logo and their story, when putting one on it reminds you of a great time you once had somewhere in this world with your geo-people friends. If you're going to FOSS4G Europe 2026, don't miss the chance to get your T-shirt.
