Each image is a surprise designed to delight an audience +consisting of the QEMU community and beyond. You can see previous +years at [https://www.qemu-advent-calendar.org/](https://www.qemu-advent-calendar.org/) + +You can help us make this year's calendar awesome by: + * [Sending disk images](mailto:eldon-qemu@eldondev.com?Subject=QEMU 2020 advent disk image) + * Sending ideas for disk images + +Here are the requirements for disk images: + * Content must be freely redistributable (i.e. no proprietary + license that prevents distribution). For GPL based software, + you need to provide the source code, too. + * Provide a name and a short description of the disk image + (e.g. with hints on what to try) + * Provide a ./run shell script that prints out the name and + description/hints and launches QEMU + * Provide a 320x240 screenshot/image/logo for the website + * Size should be ideally under 100 MB per disk image + (but if some few images are bigger, that should be OK, too) + +Check out [this disk +image](https://www.qemu-advent-calendar.org/2018/download/day24.tar.xz) as an +example of how to distribute an image. Links to files over 25MB are appreciated +in lieu of email attachments. + +PS: QEMU Advent Calendar is a secular calendar (not +religious). The idea is to create a fun experience for the QEMU +community which can be shared with everyone. You don't need +to celebrate Christmas or another religious festival to participate!
