See you tomorrow at the Open Source for Real! event, the first SUSEÂ international event dedicated to the discovery of the SUSEÂ open source ecosystem, including database (EnterpriseDB), middleware (Â WSO2) and enterprise CMDB applications (CMDBuild).
Look forward to catch up with new and old friend from the European Open Source scene later this week at the OWF, in Paris. In case you missed from the 3rd to the 5th of October political representatives, decision-makers and experts will meet to debate on the technological, economical and social impacts that the Free and Open-Source technologies bring to market.
I’ll give a speech on the 4th at the Community Summit – Open Source Innovation Stories.
See you there!
Since the rise of Facebook there has been much discussion about people building walled gardens with open source software, but it seems like we’ve almost forgotten that many of us have built open source software behind someone else’s walled garden.
During the 2010 summit we spent a day discussing the so-called data-jail issue. Last year at the OWF we explored a possible solution for the problem based on interoperability between forges.
This year we want to look at how the landscape has changed; which opportunities allow projects to keep full control over their data, and which initiatives the EU is driving to address the issue. Academics, industry players and open forge advocates will illuminate this immersive half-day event. If you care about your project’s freedom, this summit is one you won’t want to miss!
