Hi Daniel,

Great to see that FOSDEM gets a mention on semiwiki. Just wanted to add an additional talk that wasn't in the list. Philipp Wagner from FOSSi Foundation (FOSSi: The Free and Open Source Silicon Foundation) also did a presentation in the main track that can be found here https://fosdem.org/2016/schedule/event/digital_hardware_design/
