Welcome back! ready for day 3 of #OggCamp2026
Wait, where did all the signs and stickers go? Ah. Right, no, sorry, it’s over 😞
We’ll share a recap in the next few days. Be sure to send us your blog posts and memories!
You can follow the last few hours of #OggCamp2026 main stage programming at https://oggcamp.org/live - or, watch the videos later.
Right now, @michael@toot.mynameismwd.org is explaining how to build a part of Sweden (and track moose 🫎 ) using Minecraft and open mapping data. LiDAR! Python! Ecology!
Less than a week until #OggCamp2026 - here's some things you will want to know.
Not long now...
Congratulations to the winner of our strictly unofficial, made-up, secret game - the hidden Ogg was found! Well done @Edent@mastodon.social - may you bask in the fictional glory! 🎉

Exactly 4 weeks from this moment we'll all be tucked up in bed ready for a nice early Saturday morning start of OggCamp. Definitely not still in the bar talking nonsense or anything...
“… in the end… there’s nothing better than helping people!” Well said @JonTheNiceGuy@toot.io and that is absolutely the spirit of #OggCamp
As we all scramble to get everything done in time to wind down for the Christmas and new year break, why not distract yourself by thinking about the last weekend in April 2026?
We'll all get together in Manchester, UK on 25th and 26th April to celebrate Free Culture, Free and Open Source Software, hardware hacking, digital rights, and all manner of collaborative cultural activities!

OggCamp is an event that's run by volunteers. That includes our wonderful crew. We'd love you to be part of that crew and help us with tasks such as greeting arrivals at check-in, helping to run the merchandise stand, being “runners” to support speaker requirements, getting rooms set up, and loads more.
If you want to help make OggCamp run smoothly and safely for everyone involved, have a read of this and then get in touch with us.

The Swap Shop is back this year! It's a way for you to get rid of those parts you bought for a project that never went anywhere, and/or find new things for a future project that might go somewhere interesting! Bring your items to OggCamp with you, and then bring them to the table.
We do have some rules so be sure to have a read of the post about it here:
We're heading into the final sessions, but here's a brief blog recap / link to videos from day 1!
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social hi. We are trying to spread the word about our event and we'd really appreciate it if you could mention it in one of your videos or podcasts.
It's a volunteer-run community unconference about Free Culture, Free and Open Source Software, hardware hacking, digital rights, and all manner of collaborative cultural activities. We'd love you to come over to Manchester in the UK in April if you can make it!
All the details are at https://www.oggcamp.org/
