From the FreeBSD wiki page: "The Laptop and Desktop Workgroup (LDWG) is a platform for the community to collaborate on development, testing, knowledge exchange, and advocacy for FreeBSD on laptops and d esktops. Our mission is to advocate, support, and improve the use of FreeBSD on laptops and desktops for both business and personal users."

Mostly informal discussion, ways to get involved and a-day-in-the-life of using FreeBSD as a primary desktop system, including a short DJ-BSD redux from last BSDCan.

Charlie Li is FreeBSD Ports committer focusing on GTK-based desktops, Python stuff, a little Rust and of course ham radio (callsign: K3CL). Sometimes works at a transit agency. Otherwise lurking across eastern PA with occasional trolling elsewhere.
