Buildpacks in Amsterdam for KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe
Are you ready for KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe?! This year’s European flagship event is especially meaningful because in March 2020, we were all set to head to Amsterdam for that year’s KubeCon Europe, but like many other events it had to be canceled. We are finally making the trek to The Netherlands next week to engage with the cloud native community and we couldn’t be more excited to see everyone!
See below for all the opportunities to engage with us and the rest of the Cloud Native Buildpacks community in Amsterdam.
Note: All times mentioned below are in Central European Summer Time (CEST), UTC +2
In-Person Project Meeting
Tuesday, April 18 • 10:30–12:30 CEST, Room D303, Congress Center
Join us for general welcome and introduction to Buildpacks. We’ll give an overview of the project and review our roadmap for the first half of the year. Then we’ll discuss some special topics including Dockerfile Extensions, Stack Removal, and Execution Environments + Testing. Finally, we’ll leave some time for Q&A.
Note: You DO NOT need an all-access pass to attend a project meeting. A regular in-person registration is all that is required.
