11月14日和15日是传统的开发者会议。欢迎任何有兴趣在MariaDB开源项目中贡献力量（代码或者其它形式的贡献）的人参加。参与会议并不要求您是核心开发人员，这是一个开放的社区，我们欢迎那些愿意学习和参与开源的新贡献者。
这两天我们将就MariaDB开发有关的各种话题进行深入的介绍和讨论。
这次活动是一个开放的会议，有很多机会对各种议题进行讨论与协作。性能、新特性、连接器、安装包以及文档等方向，您可以参与帮助我们一起决定一些事情。许多MariaDB核心开发人员将出席并与大家讨论。
这次活动的目标是为新老开发者提供一个面对面的交流平台，以便大家能够一起攻克一些难题，或者对新特性进行规划。

Patch研讨会

在开发者会议之后，经过了大量的展示和讨论，我们需要着手工作了。这2天将用于补丁审查（Code Review），面对面的讨论比正常的在线审查流程更高效。这也是个好机会可以把前面讨论的好想法一起来设计好实现，因为这些想法还很新，您可以亲自与其他开发者进行沟通。

如果您对该活动有任何疑问，或有关如何贡献MariaDB，请随时在MariaDB开发人员邮件列表或MariaDB讨论邮件列表进行讨论。
请在这里注册MariaDB Developers开发者大会。 …
