Jan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange:Since 25 years, there is a big conference on Open Source and Free Software in Europe that couldn't share the list of participants with authorities, even if they wanted to. Because there is no registration, no tickets, no waiting list.

I noticed you're replying in this thread where I was asking to chat with Affiliate Reps who had questions (since they're my constituents). If you are, I'd like to chat offline in a more in depth conversation. Also happy to answer your questions here in public if that suits you better, I'm just very longwinded so this format is tough for me!

Winfried 🏳️‍🌈I hear often the argument that we have lost the knowledge in the EU to be independent from the US. That is disinformation of big tech. All of their "innovation" is based on open source software, often written by public research institutions. When you visit <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/FOSDEM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FOSDEM</a>, you are literally at the hotspot of innovation. That knowledge is all around and open. We just need to pick it up and build our own economy around it.
