One of the most effective ways to approach community building is through the lens of pathways to leadership. A path that invests in new maintainers is the backbone of creating a welcoming, diverse, and sustainable open source community. In this talk, we’ll use the Mountain of Engagement framework to break down how open source projects can level up their community and invest in new maintainers.

DESCRIPTION:There are multiple ways how FOSS projects coordinate and inform about their localization effort. Wiki pages, forums, READMEs, etc. And there are different platforms and servers. Should there be something unified to ease the orientation for translators? Something like TRANSLATE.md?

If you’re not doing user interviews, you probably don’t. In this talk, Emily Omier will help attendees understand why user interviews are so important, how to run an interview that provides good information and what to do with the information you get. Spoiler: often the best interviews are also the most awkward.

In this talk, we will explore the fascinating world of Wikimedia's open-source tools ecosystem and the cloud infrastructure that makes it possible. We will showcase some of the coolest tools and projects, and we will highlight the unique opportunity that the Foundation offers for contributing to its cloud infrastructure – a rare chance to work on infrastructure for a cause that does good in the world, supporting the Foundation's mission of providing free and open knowledge to the global community.
Whether you are a seasoned open-source developer or a newcomer to the field, this talk will provide valuable insights and inspiration for getting involved in Wikimedia's vibrant community of contributors.

DESCRIPTION:using a mountain metaphor instead of choropleth or cartogram visualisations has some use in showing similarities and differences between places. data mountains are a bit like bar charts on a map, but their mountainous shape makes the bars resemble topographic features!
using #nbdev to publish the package was fun because it makes it much easier for python teams to collaborate on jupyter notebooks in git as it cleans json metadata with a pre-commit hook that prevents merge conflicts, and it also makes it very convenient to document, test, and share code and packages on the web, pypi, and conda.

If the place does not exist, CoffeOSM suggests ways to insert it. This talk will discuss how CoffeOSM works and the benefits it brings to the OpenStreetMap community. We will also showcase examples of how CoffeOSM has been used to add new locations to OpenStreetMap and demonstrate its user-friendly interface. Attendees will learn how they can use CoffeOSM to contribute to the OpenStreetMap project and help make it even more comprehensive and accurate. I'll also ask for help to gather receipt example from different countries.

DESCRIPTION:Setting your first steps in the world of programming can be a daunting task. The tools used are unforgiving, and learning materials are too often based on rote learning and writing code from scratch. Many learners feel excluded and like they do not belong, this is especially true for learners that are from groups underrepresented in programming education. In recent years the Predict-Run-Investigate-Modify-Make (PRIMM) approach has been proposed to help students by focusing on learning how to read code before moving on to learning how to write it.
In this lightning talk we will discuss how open source micromaterials can be created as small side or hobby projects, taking into consideration these concepts. We will do so by discussing some open source micro-materials we made, but we will also take a look on how to ensure that your contributions provide educational value.

In this session, we will briefly present the method and content of the Good Governance Initiative Handbook, and demonstrate how to put it in action through the automatic deployment of a personalized dashboard to implement the method in a local context. We will also review how you can participate and contribute to the initiative and help translate it into your own language.

Despite the existence of development platforms for Eurorack focused on using commodity microcontrollers and the availability of (closed source) FPGA-based synthesizer modules, there is currently no easy way to get started in creating your own FPGA-based music synthesizer hardware.
In this talk Sebastian will present his 'eurorack-pmod' project, a collection of open-source hardware, gateware and software that makes it easy to get started in the world of FPGA-based audio synthesis using only open-source tools (such as Yosys + KiCAD). This talk begins with an overview of music synthesis in the context of Eurorack and illustrates how the 'eurorack-pmod' hardware and gateware makes it easy for you to get started making your own high performance music hardware.

While we’re used to preparing for major disasters - earthquakes, cyclones - it’s time to start thinking about how good maps can save lives and help us navigate better these increasingly common events.
With a view to preparedness and disaster reduction, we’ll take a look at features worth mapping in OpenStreetMap -- parking lots, vacant businesses, gas stations, ad hoc "cooling centers" -- that you might otherwise overlook and give a short overview of tools like Mapillary and StreetComplete.

Using this infrastructure, we can reliably deploy new machines—and reconfigure existing ones—in predictable ways. In this talk, we will explain the problems we had to solve, how we reasoned through these issues, and what we built to solve the problems. Improved reliability, decreased time to production, increased stability, and all of this without sacrificing usability or end-user experience.

DESCRIPTION:If you nowadays work with and on the cloud or simply *-as-Code, chances are you came into proximity of ‘Yet Another Markup Language’ (YAML). Deceptively simple in appearance, YAML provides you with a plethora of ways to shoot yourself in the foot. This talk discusses a number of common pitfalls. In a nutshell: Why YAML is not as easy as you may think.

And we all rely on CNI for setting up our networking in Kubernetes. But what do YOU want to see in it? Doug wants to let you know what he’s been thinking about for CNI 2.0 – and invite you to join the revolution. Did you know CNI is container orchestration agnostic? It’s not Kubernetes specific. Should it stay that way? People are looking for translation layers between Kubernetes and CNI itself. Have you engaged in the war between JSON and YAML? If you’re a Kubernetes user, and a CNI user, maybe you have. We need a way to make sure these disparate worlds meet, peacefully. Let’s make sure CNI is here to stay to give the community the flexibility in Kubernetes networking that we all deserve, and fight the good fight for our sysadmins so we keep the CNI API alive to promote a healthy open source ecosystem and avoid vendor lock-in.

Each artifact is associated with a file in the filesystem and thetimestamp of the file was used to determine which actions (recipes) need to beexecuted. Traditionally, to be backwards compatible with make, subsequent buildsystems also implemented this concept. However, there is no technical reason todo it like this. Instead, it even has a couple of advantages if this concept isabandoned and no association of artifacts with the filesystem is done. Nowadays,where content-addressable storage is a widely applied concept and actions areanyway executed in an isolated environment may it be in a separate directory orin a sandbox, this problem can be tackled by a complete separation betweenphysical and logical paths, which is also called staging. Input and output pathsof an individual action are abstracted away. Thus, each target has its own viewof the world and can place generated artifacts at any logical path they like.Consuming targets may place these generated artifacts at a different logicallocation. This allows to define build targets independently of their actuallocation and in particular allows to refer to targets from other repositories.This simplifies the handling of different repositories. All what matters is howthe target is defined and not where. This concept is implemented in anopen-source build system, which is publicly available under the following link:https://github.com/just-buildsystem/justbuild.

While the reasoning why small and medium teams do not move away from big (evil) tech platforms can sometimes be convenience, there can be monsters lurking in the shadows. In this presentation we will explore and celebrate the movement of independent, self-governed open source infrastructure providers, recognize some of the challenges in the path of libre infrastructure, and share how to migrate from tech oligopolies to open source cloud platforms without hassle.

FOSSBot has been developed collaboratively by Harokopio University of Athens and the Greek Free and Open Source Software (GFOSS) community. The use of FOSSBOT in education will be supported by collaborative seminars for all teachers of all specialties and levels based on educational material developed at https://elearn.ellak.gr. The aim of the action is to familiarize teachers with modern education models based on the S.T.E.A.M approach. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) and establish a student-centered approach to knowledge, based on open technologies, in order to lay the foundations for the creation of an open environment of discovery learning that will creatively contribute to the transformation of students into active citizens.
FOSSBot belongs to the DIY (Do It Yourself) category, with the logic that it can easily be built by other people besides its creators, and its disassembly and reassembly process can be part of an educational process in the classroom. This is possible since FOSSBot is made of electronic materials that can be easily found commercially at a low cost while the plastic parts are printable.

You have to domanual memory management, behavior is written in stone at compile time andthe joke goes that every non-trivial project has it's own linked listimplementation. There exists however a not so well-hidden superpower that allowsyou to program in C, get the performance where it counts, and stillhave plenty of time for chatter around the coffee machine.
That superpower is the Lua programming language.
This lightning talk will approach Lua from a C programmer'sperspective: how Lua can help alleviate some pain points of C, illustrate somecommon patterns for how to integrate Lua with C (and vice versa) and how you canget up and running with Lua in your C project.

Overlay networks (inappropriately called "darknet") are able to anonymize peers and to fully encrypt all messages within a network. I2P gained more attention in 2022. Lately some important changes to the protocol layer of I2P have been implemented: the cryptography has been modernized and the software packages were released end of 2022.
This short talk shows the major changes, and whether the performance and stability of the I2P network got improved. This is one of the I2P reseed server maintainers and application developers talking (see links).

Unlike other privacy-enhanced technologies like OpenVPN and Tor, Nym defends against global passive adversaries that have a "God's eye" view of the entire network, like the NSA. Nym does this by mixing internet packets at nodes so they do not exit the mixnet in FIFO, as well as adding fake traffic. Like Tor, any application and use SOCKS proxies to bind to Nym. As Nym is built in Rust, it also allows WebSockets and other direct integration. We can demonstrate how the Nym mix network hides network-level metadata from everything from Bitcoin to Telegram.

But this time, let's improve on the concept and give people full sovereignty over their identity.
Keyoxide is a new decentralized tool to verify online identities using modern cryptography through a system of claims and proofs. People use it to establish a verifiable digital passport that links to all their online accounts. These passports can even be anonymous.
This talk briefly introduces the concept of online identity and explains how Keyoxide went about solving it in a decentralized way, using established cryptography standards and infrastructure, without needing blockchain-related technologies.

It allows you to store content and metadata is one file. You can read your data from the file in a efficient manner, without uncompress/extract the data from the file.We will also see Arx, a file archive (equivalent to tar/zip) which use Jubako.

DESCRIPTION:There's a lot of consumer open-source products out there, beyond the realm of developer tools. There are now open-source competitors for almost any proprietary productivity, project and knowledge management, and other digital tools.But to fully take advantage of open-source so far required at least basic coding knowledge -- without it, one is not able to fork or self-host the software, and is confined to using the cloud version only.Open-source PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) solutions such as Caprover and Gardens offer a way out. They allow to easily host server-side or web-apps through the UI or CLI, and automate most of the complexity usually associated with setting up and maintaining self-hosted software. This presentation tells a story of how these products came about and how they work.

Being a fully documented and transparent design is a core value of the project, ensuring mainline kernel integration with no effort wasted on reversing-engineering proprietary designs covered by NDA (non-disclosure-agreements), while avoiding untrusted binary blobs. The products should “just work”, at its maximum performance and feature set, with full involvement and support for the community.
Last year, Libre-SOC labored to produce its first silicon, a test chip, and produced its first Linux-capable networked proof of concept on an FPGA (field programmable gate array) development board. Using a completely FLOSS toolchain, any developer can build and test this design on their own computer, run it in hardware in a supported FPGA development board, or even build a full ASIC chip layout.
In this talk I’ll present topics of the ongoing architecture design and formal testing, being written in a modern, developer-friendly, Python-based hardware description language.

That means proving that your code is free of bugs and/or follows its specifications. SPARK is both a language (subset of Ada) and a set of tools that bring automatic formal verification in the hands of any developer.
This technology is getting more interest from the industry (e.g. NVIDIA recently) for its extremely powerful properties in terms of safety and security. However, it is not widely known that SPARK is both open source and very easy to start using.
In this talk I will provide quick and easy instructions to start your first formally verified library in SPARK. Using only free and open-source tools and resources (compiler, package manager, IDE, verification tools).
