This document summarizes a presentation about SwellRT, an open-source platform for building real-time collaborative applications. SwellRT allows for rapid development of apps like real-time text editing, workflows, chat, and push notifications. It uses a backend-as-a-service architecture with a REST API and supports features like data autonomy, interoperability, and privacy for collaborative objects. The platform aims to avoid vendor lock-in and has origins in Apache Wave. JetPad, a collaborative document editor built on SwellRT, is highlighted as a prototype for citizen participation apps.
Deploying an Open Source DAM in SAAS Mode (European Drupal Days 2015)Eugenio Minardi
This document summarizes Michel van de Ven's presentation on deploying the open source digital asset management system MediaMosa in a software as a service (SAAS) model.

Drupal is an open-source content management system (CMS) that allows users to build and manage websites. It provides features like blogs, galleries, and the ability to restrict content by user roles. Drupal is highly customizable through modules and themes and supports moving sites between development, test, and production environments. While it uses some technical terms like "nodes" and "taxonomy," Drupal is accessible to non-developers and can be installed on common web hosting with Apache, MySQL, and PHP. Resources for learning Drupal include books, training videos, online communities, and conferences.
Dan Gillean and Justin Simpson from Artefactual Systems gave a presentation on their open source digital preservation applications AtoM and Archivematica. Artefactual develops these applications using open standards and makes their code freely available under open source licenses. They provide technical support and services to help institutions implement and use AtoM for archival description and Archivematica for digital preservation workflows based on the OAIS model. Examples of institutions using AtoM and Archivematica were provided.

Open Source on the Mainframe Mini-Summit 2019 - How Open Source is Modernizin...Open Mainframe Project
The open source movement has rapidly become the way code is being developed for today’s smart and agile businesses. This session will cover how an “open mainframe” is the perfect solution for deploying open source on an enterprise computing platform. You will learn how the open source community has gathered around the mainframe platform and how open source projects such as Zowe and Feilong are the starting point for open development. The session will also cover how the mainframe platform is a natural technology for Linux deployments, and how the mainframe community operates within the wider construct of the Linux Foundation.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
