 Welcome to EuroBSDCon 2023 in Quimbra, as they say here. First, we have to thank our sponsors. Our platinum sponsor is Modiron. Our platinum sponsor is Iron. Our G-Nets. Our gold sponsor, damn, there's no name on the slide. Who's that? Thank you, Apple. Our server sponsors are OpenSense and the FreeBSD Foundation. Our brand sponsors are Genoa, HA Proxy, and NetBSD. And our partners became so many that I really had to get the logo pretty small on the slide. Skyline, PC Engines, PowerDNS, NetsCommune, dinfrastructure.infrastructure, I don't know. OpenBSD Amsterdam, Lalo, and Cis. Thank you to the University of Quimbra for hosting us. The Quimbra team, the local team, Pedro. Thank you. Nelson, Bruno, and Paolo. And the video team largely in the back, John Baldwin, Patrick McEvoy of BSDTV, Florian, Albert, Phyllis, Jerome, DCH, and Dexter. A program committee led by Peter Hansen. Well, Philip Ruehler, Stuart Hansen, Tom Jones, Kristen Nielsen, Misha Peters, and Benny Siegert. The EuroBSD Confoundation, Paul DeWeert, Guido van Rooij, René Ladin, Philip Ruehler, Thomas Merkel, who's that? Henning Rauer, Katie McMillan, Jerome Johnson, and Bernard Spill, who's stepping down years and years and years of great service. Thank you, Bernard, even though you're not here today. You have the Paul Schenkerfeld travel grant. We do have a grantee here who wishes to remain anonymous. We will have the travel grant for the next conference again. So if you know a person that should be at the next conference in... that should be at the next conference, please let them know that they apply for the travel grant and we will get one person to the conference at our cost, which is really your cost. Coffee is just outside the auditorium. It will be served in the coffee breaks. There's also going to be natas. Yay! I don't know where the auditorium is, but apparently you found it because that's where we are. Room C7 and C13. We already used them yesterday. So basically, out of the main entrance, left, left, and straight into the door, you are seeing open there. In general, if you need help to find anyone in the real group, that's the people with the blue bar on the batches. We will happily help you. We want to make a family photo with everybody. So we ask everybody to meet at one o'clock just outside the door and make one, well, family photo. Because to me, EuroBS decons are like family meetings in the most positive sense you can think of. As every so often, we forgot to ask for your country in the registration process. So we kindly ask you to log into the registration system again and do the country survey so that we have nice statistics in the closing session. Does anybody need more time for the QR code? There's going to be more. It's a one-click survey. You can do it. The social event that is tonight, right? Tonight? Yes. The social event tonight, bring a batch. It's at 10 to the event. It's one and a half kilometers, or 22.72 minute walk from here. Maybe 22.73 if you walk slower. For those who do not want to walk, like, we'll walk over from here. It's not very far. For those who do not want to walk and want to take a cab or something, the QR code has the destination coordinates. I see at least a couple of cameras there. Okay. In general, check the website. We've updated it and we keep updating it. Answers to most of your questions, those regarding the conference at least, are there. And for that, develop them through whatever, which means as much as enjoy the conference. And now I hope we are ready to switch over to the keynote by Paul Alexander Silver, facilitating change, embracing gender diversity in computer science.
