Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q. What is the GCC Developers' Summit?

A. The GCC and GNU Toolchain developers Summit is a vendor neutral venue for the developers of free compiler technology and associated tools. The objective of the Summit is to promote open cooperation and to improve communications.

Q. Is there an announcement mailing list?

A. We recommend that you subscribe to the GCC Summit Announcement mailing list. Traffic will be very low but all the critical announcements will be made there. Archives are also available.

Q. I'm coming alone and would like to share the cost of hotel, is there any way to help coordinate this?

A. Yes, you can email info AT gccsummit.org and we'll help you find some other people in the same situation. Sharing is a great way to keep costs low.
