==== LinuxTag 2005 ====
LinuxTag 2005<ref>Website of LinuxTag 2005 https://www.linuxtag.org/2005/308.0.en.html</ref> took place from 22 to 25 June at the Messe Karlsruhe. It was the 11th LinuxTag and titled "Linux everywhere". As usual a conference with far more than 100 talks and presentations was accompanied by a large exhibition with booths from more than 160 companies and projects, plus on 22 June 2005 the business and administration sub-conference. Additionally workshops and tutorials were offered.

Keynote speaker [[Jimmy Wales]] announced a collaboration between Wikipedia and [[K Desktop Environment|KDE]] in his opening speech. Through a [[web API]] every program can directly access Wikipedia, which was used by the KDE Media Player [[Amarok (software)|Amarok]] version 1.3 to access the Wikipedia articles of artists.

The organizers counted about 12,000 visitors, a little less than in previous years, which was mainly caused by the newly introduced mandatory entrance fee and the hottest week of the year 2005.
