Every year, the International Free Software Forum grants space freely so groups of users from different languages, technologies, operational systems and other technological means related to Free Software may have a meeting point, to show their work and exchange experience with other groups, people and institutions. We aim to promote a greater interaction between all those connected to free software.

Confirmed groups of users for FISL9.0, see here.
