Podcasts about free software foundation europe

This episode features a panel discussion with Stefano Maffulli, Executive Director of the Open Source Initiative (OSI); and Stephen O'Grady, Co-founder of RedMonk. Stefano has decades of experience in open source advocacy. He co-founded the Italian chapter of Free Software Foundation Europe, built the developer community of the OpenStack Foundation, and led open source marketing teams at several international companies. Stephen has been an industry analyst for several decades and is author of the developer playbook, The New Kingmakers: How Developers Conquered the World.In this episode, Sam, Stefano, and Stephen discuss the intersection of open source and AI, good data for everyone, and open data foundations.-------------------“Internet Archive, Wikipedia, they have that mission to accumulate data. The OpenStreetMap is another big one with a lot of interesting data. It's a fascinating space, though. There are so many facets of the word ‘data.' One of the reasons why open data is so hard to manage and hasn't had that same impact of open source is because, like Stephen, the stories that he was telling about the startups having a hard time assembling the mixing and matching, or modifying of data has a different connotation. It's completely different from being able to do the same with software.” – Stefano Maffulli“It's also not clear how said foundation would get buy-in. Because, as far as a lot of the model holders themselves, they've been able to do most of what they want already. What's the foundation really going to offer them? They've done what they wanted. Not having any inside information here, but just judging by the fact that they are willing to indemnify their users, they feel very confident legally in their stance. Therefore, it at least takes one of the major cards off the table for them.” – Stephen O'Grady-------------------Episode Timestamps:(01:44): What open source in the context of AI means to each guest(16:21): Stefano explains OSI's opportunity to shine a light on models and teams(21:22): The next step of open source AI according to Stephen(25:38): Creating better definitions in order to modify software(33:09): The case of funding an open data foundation(42:31): The future of open source data(51:54): Executive producer, Audra Montenegro's backstage takeaways-------------------Links:LinkedIn - Connect with StefanoVisit Open Source InitiativeLinkedIn - Connect with StephenVisit RedMonk

Guest Serkan Holat Panelists Richard Littauer | Leslie Hawthorn Show Notes Hello and welcome to Sustain! The podcast where we talk about sustaining open source for the long haul. Richard and Leslie are hosting today, and they're very excited to welcome our special guest, Serkan Holat, who's a Freelance Software Developer, with over 20 years of experience in researching finance, open source ecosystems, and digital public goods. He advocates for financing open source software with public money and setting up dedicated public funds called Agile Public Funds. Today, we'll discuss with Serkan, the need to allocate funds to support and publish critical open source software, the importance of sustainability on open source software, and the lack of understanding of the industry's risk profile. Also, Serkan gives us all the details on an experiment he recently started to increase awareness about using public money to finance open source. Download this episode to hear much more! [00:01:47] We start off with Serkan telling us how the tax cause is going. He proposes introducing an open source tax on proprietary software sales, with the revenue going to public funds for distribution to the open source ecosystem. [00:06:11] Serkan explains how he's watched the space grow, and he talks about the Digital Public Goods Alliance that recognizes open source software as a new type of digital public good, and the Sovereign Tech Fund. [00:08:35] Serkan tells us why there shouldn't be any obligations on the developers and what we should do. [00:10:23] We hear Serkan's thoughts on the Sovereign Tech Fund in Germany, an excellent initiative that he supports as a blueprint for other nations to follow, but scalability will become an issue. [00:12:39] Free Software Foundation Europe has a fantastic campaign. Serkan's explains the idea of using public sector collaboration. [00:13:56] There's a discussion on the challenges of implementing public sector collaboration and there's a suggestion of creating a social contract to increase funding for open source software. [00:16:43] What's wrong with the market we currently have? Serkan elaborates on this. [00:20:19] The conversation shifts to Richard, Leslie, and Serkan touching on the role of security in financing open source software, they discuss the allocations of funds to support and publish open source software, the need for sustainability in open source software, and the lack of understanding of the industry's risk profile. [00:28:41] Serkan shares his thoughts on how he's trying to convince software companies to produce open source software. [00:30:31] Richard wonders how a tax on proprietary software to help out open source communities, is going to lead to a more equitable environment, or all people building open source software. [00:32:45] Serkan advocates for the creation of public funds to finance the open source ecosystem, and he's been experimenting with this approach for the past 15 months. He chooses three projects from Open Collective each month and distributes money based on their criticality score. [00:34:11] Find out where you can follow Serkan and all his writings on the web. Quotes [00:02:51] “My proposal on that area is to introduce an open source software tax on proprietor software sales.” Spotlight [00:37:13] Leslie's spotlight is the Chaos Computer Club. [00:38:22] Richard's spotlight is the Feminist Bird Club, Northern Vermont chapter. [00:39:04] Serkan's spotlight is an announcement made by Minister Alexandra van Huffelen, at the EU Open Source Policy Summit 2023.

Public Money, Public Code! är en kampanj från Free Software Foundation Europe. Målet är att kod som finansieras med skattemedel också ska offentliggöras under fria och öppna licenser (open source). Fördelarna inkluderar större möjligheter till samarbete med andra offentliga aktörer, såväl som privata, självständighet från enskilda kod-försäljare, skattebesparingar, ökad innovation och bättre informationssäkerhet.

Nella puntata di oggi Gianluca e Thomas affrontano l'argomento d'eccellenza del periodo, il Contact Tracing, con:

Docker, VMware, and Amazon all have big announcements, a new organization is launched to shepherd the open source microservices ecosystem, and more.

The Free Software Foundation Europe recently published a "position paper for the endorsement of Free Software and Open Standards in Horizon 2020 and all publicly-funded research". At the barcamp a couple of people from the FSFE held a session on this topic. We talked to Olga Gkotsopoulou and asked her to give us a little feedback on her session.

Lusy from the Free Software Foundation Europe held a session on why only 2 women did propose a session here at the barcamp (vs. 10 men or so). We asked her to give us a little background and her impressions.

Matthias Kirschner von der Free Software Foundation Europe (fsfe) ist erneut zu Gast und wir unterhalten uns über den aktuellen Stand des Linux Desktopprojektes in München.

Nach dem Vortrag auf dem Camp 2015 von Thorsten Schröder zu Thema "Freie Software gegen unsere Freiheit" gesehen hatten, wollten wir uns mal mit dem Thema aus der Sicht der Free Software Foundation Europe (fsfe) auseinandersetzen. Dazu hat sich Matthias seines zeichen Präsident der Free Software Foundation Europe im Fonodron eingefunden.

Wer E-Mail-Verschlüsselung sagt, meint meist: GnuPG. Doch obwohl das Programm als Standard gilt, scheiterte ein Spendenaufruf, der die Kosten für Erhaltung, Pflege und Weiterentwicklung ermöglichen sollte, beinahe. Und GnuPG ist kein Einzelfall: Die nachhaltige Finanzierung von Open Source-Projekten ist schwierig ist, obwohl viele Projekte immer wichtiger für die zentrale Infrastruktur im Netz werden. Welche Modelle gibt es? Welche sind denkbar? Darüber diskutiert Moderator Marcus Richter am Donnerstag den 26.02. ab 22 Uhr mit Gästen aus dem CCC sowie Matthias Kirschner von der Free Software Foundation Europe live im CCCB in der Marienstrasse 11. Einlass ab 19 Uhr. Der Eintritt ist frei. Für alle, die heute nicht live dabei sein können, stellt das VOC Video- und Audio-Streams http://streaming.media.ccc.de bereit.

Ein Gespräch mit Georg Greve, Präsident der Free Software Foundation Europe, über die Geschichte, Struktur, Arbeit und Ziele der Initiative zur Förderung freier Software.
