Transforming lives and communities through social entrepeneurship
Keston Perry presents on transforming lives and communities through social entrepreneurship. Social entrepreneurship aims to create social value rather than wealth by addressing social issues in innovative ways. Social entrepreneurs tackle major social problems through ambitious visions, are mission-driven to promote systemic change, and are strategic and resourceful in developing solutions with limited resources. They focus on measurable results that transform realities for marginalized groups. Challenges addressed through social enterprises include poverty, illiteracy, unemployment, and more. Financing can come from social entrepreneurship programs, government ministries, corporate social responsibility initiatives, and international support. Social enterprises require community involvement, being community-driven and owned, and strategic, long-term sustainability through catalyzing networks and
CyberSalon - Smart Citizens, Cities & the Case for CitySDK
Smart cities should empower citizens by giving them access to data and systems. The CitySDK provides open APIs and standards to share data and solutions across cities. It has been used to build apps that give citizens information on mobility, parking, trees, and public services. By prototyping quickly and engaging citizens, cities can better address problems through civic initiatives and harness the knowledge of their smart citizens.

This document discusses emerging trends in design and the role of design schools in the age of networks and sustainability. It identifies four key design trends: 1) design for social experiments, 2) design with and for social innovation, 3) design as networked co-design processes, and 4) design that promotes coalitions. It suggests design schools can participate in these trends by promoting design initiatives in networks, co-designing coalitions, participating in social experiments, and developing a new design culture. The overall message is that design and design schools must adapt to focus on networked, collaborative approaches that support social and environmental sustainability.
Green Digital Charter Workshop - Working with citizens
This document discusses citizen engagement in three levels: inform and consult, include and collaborate, and empower and co-create. Inform and consult involves one-way communication methods like websites and public meetings to share information. Include and collaborate builds trust through workshops and social media for joint work. Empower and co-create gives citizens real participation through design workshops, participatory budgeting, and handing over control of communications. The overall goal is to incorporate public perspectives into decision-making at different stages.

Drupal's Credit System and Evidence-Based Open-Source Sustainability
Presented by: Matthew Tift & Tim Lehnen
Presented at the All Things Open 2021
Raleigh, NC, USA
Raleigh Convention Center
Abstract: Sustaining open-source projects is the decade's challenge. Understanding how contributions are made—by volunteers, sponsored by an organization, or both—can create incentives for ongoing support.
The Drupal project has measured contributions in Drupal.org issues since 2015 using a credit system that captures contributions—including code, documentation, speaking at events, security review, etc.—from both individuals and organizations. This insight is used to shape incentives in the Drupal ecosystem.
Attendees will learn how Drupal’s contribution credit system works and why we would like to bring it to GitLab and other platforms. We hope that other open-source projects and orgs who want to understand their return on investment in open source can model their approach on this credit system and benefit from the insights we’ll be sharing during this presentation.

From Collaborative Economy to Collaborative Organization
What does it need to become a collaborative organization?
Slides of the talk given at CN Wintercongress of Detecon Consulting in February 2015.
After an introduction to the Collaborative Economy and its relation to the term "Sharing Economy", the presentation shows reasons for its rapid growth: Businesses as platforms. What are the elements of a platform? Why does it allow for rapid growth and value creation?
Taking this as a basis, we translated the concept to the organizational level using OuiShare as an example. What does it need to become a truly collaborative organization? What is the culture and tools needed? What tools and organizations inspired OuiShare?
An Open Source Approach to Collaboration
How does open source software happen? What can we learn from it for cross-organizational collaboration? In this presentation, ifPeople cofounders Tirza Hollenhorst and Christopher Johnson talk about what open source is, the process by which it is created through a voluntary community, and a concrete process that can be used in any project (even non-software projects) to "social source" the project.

Innovation in Future Enterprise, by David Osimo
This document discusses trends in innovation, including the sharing economy, big data, and social computing. It provides examples of how companies like Kodak and Instagram demonstrate how innovation is changing. The sharing economy is leveraging unused assets and network effects to create services. Big data is growing exponentially in terms of volume, variety, and velocity. Social computing uses enterprise 2.0 approaches to access micro-expertise within organizations. These trends are enabling new, data-driven business models and approaches to open innovation within large companies. Skills and processes are needed to design inclusive innovation processes and implement platforms that can monitor and evaluate these new approaches.

The complexity of agricultural droughts requires a consistent, reliable, and systematic method for monitoring and reporting. Amongst the various indices used to monitor this phenomenon, the soil moisture anomaly has been proven to be a more reliable predictor. However, the datasets required for computing this index are often large and computationally demanding. To address this challenge, we have developed SMODEX, a Python package that enables scalable, fast, and open-source standard-compliant computation and visualization of soil moisture anomalies.
SMODEX simplifies the computation and visualization of time-series for soil moisture and soil moisture anomalies from high-dimensional climate datasets. It allows for quick and easy parallelization of the computation on a daily, weekly, and monthly timescale. Additionally, SMODEX implements a straightforward workflow for automating the use of FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) principles in producing and sharing outputs by leveraging the open source STAC API. The package is extendible and provides information on how to contribute to the project, test suites, test coverage, and a use case for the South Tyrol region, all provided in the package repository. In the future, additional agricultural drought indices and indicators would be included to serve to even larger community of researchers, policy makers, and individual users.SFSCON23 - Roberto Innocenti - From the design to reality is here the Communi...

The transition from Web 2.0 to Web 3.0 has fueled the need for a secure and decentralized cloud storage solution for digital assets. Web 2.0 was characterized by centralized platforms where user data was under the control of companies. In contrast, Web 3.0 aims to empower individuals and foster a decentralized web that supports and benefits the Free Software and Open Data Communities.
Blockchain technologies facilitate seamless collaboration and interoperability among diverse stakeholders in the Free Software and Open Data communities. Developers can establish open and transparent ecosystems where data can be shared, verified, and integrated across multiple platforms.
Beez, with its own blockchain infrastructure, offers a secure and transparent platform for digital asset exchanges, bolstering transaction integrity and trust. By distributing data across a network of nodes, Beez ensures security and mitigates the risk of single points of failure. Users retain control over their data, safeguard their privacy, and can take advantage of the incentive mechanisms offered by blockchain networks.
During our presentation, we will explore the role of AI within Beez's ecosystem, facilitating accelerated data processing, correlation, and intelligent automation. AI unlocks valuable insights from blockchain data, and we will touch upon the use of Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) to enhance programming performance.
The integration of Blockchain and AI technologies holds great potential for advancing the safety and efficiency of the Open Data ecosystem. By combining decentralized data storage, trust-building mechanisms, and intelligent data processing, Beez is paving the way for a more secure, transparent, and user-centric digital landscape.SFSCON23 - Lucas Lasota - The Future of Connectivity, Open Internet and Human...

SFSCON23 - Elena Maines - Embracing CI/CD workflows for building ETL pipelinesSouth Tyrol Free Software Conference
Up-to date measurements of surface meteorological variables are essential to monitor weather conditions, their spatio-temporal variability and the potential effects on a wide range of sectors and applications. Moreover, when included in continuous records of long historical observations spanning several decades, they become essential for assessing long-term climate variability and change locally and on a regional level.
Automated pipelines capable of retrieving and processing near-real time meteorological data satisfy the primary prerequisites towards the development and advancement of effective and operational climate services.
With a public and operational near real-time monitoring web platform in mind, we present automated pipelines to collect and process up-to-date daily temperature and precipitation records for Trentino South Tyrol (Italy) and surrounding areas, and to derive their spatially interpolated fields at sub-km scale. Our pipelines are composed by multiple steps including data download, sanity checks, reconstruction of missing daily records, integration into the historical archive, spatial interpolation and publication onto online FAIR catalogues as (openEO) “datacubes”. The different APIs, data formats and structure across the various data sources, and the need to merge the data onto harmonized meteorological layers, make this a typical case of the so-called Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) pipelines, and, in order to follow the principles of data reproducibility and Open Science, we embraced open-source automated workflow management through GitLab’s Continuous Integration / Continuous Development (CI/CD) capabilities.
CI/CD workflows greatly help the management of the relatively complex graphs of tasks required for our climate application, ensuring seamless orchestration with thorough flow monitoring, application logs, transactions rollbacks, and exception handling in general. Native pipeline-oriented software development also fosters a clean separation of roles among the tasks, and a more modular architecture. This effectively reduces barriers to collaborative development and paves the way for robust operational climate services for researchers and decision makers in the face of the changing climate.SFSCON23 - Christian Busse - Free Software and Open Science
The Open Science movement aims to increase the transparency, reproducibility and inclusiveness of academic research. One of its central goals is therefore to make research outputs broadly available, e.g., manuscripts (Open Access) or research data (Open Data). While software/code created in the course of scientific research is a key artifact of scientific research that is clear distinct from the latter two, it has until recently not received the same attention as manuscripts or data, although it follows its own set of paradigms.
In this talk I will present an overview on how the core concepts of Free Software and the FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reuseable) Principles intersect, what this means for managing code as research output and recent initiatives on the European level that will provide support for these issues.

SFSCON23 - Charles H. Schulz - Why open digital infrastructure mattersSouth Tyrol Free Software Conference
Software freedom can be defined in many ways but in legal terms it is squarely defined by a set of approved FSF and OSI software licenses. Yet everyone realizes that beyond these licenses the goal of software freedom and digital sovereignty cannot be achieved without the ability to master and create hardware components and systems - and beyond that, to rely on open digital infrastructure (servers, datacenters, and resources) . This talk will present the challenges around these topics and what we, collectively in Europe already do and can do to ensure our independence and our freedoms.SFSCON23 - Andrea Vianello - Achieving FAIRness with EDP-portal

As open source software becomes the foundation to build digital products, to run the backbones of ICT infrastructure and to ensure digital sovereignty and cyber resilience, both the technology as well as the communities that develop it inevitably move into the focus of regulators. The European Union is advancing a number of policy initiatives that regulate liability, cyber security, data handling and AI applications in digital products, among others. This is a challenge for the still quite decentralised and globally operating open source community. How could the open source community participate in legislative processes, and what may be the potential impacts of the upcoming regulation on the open source development process and community dynamics?SFSCON23 - Marco Pavanelli - Monitoring the fleet of Sasa with free software

How to sharpen the demand for public code across Europe and monitor progress with TEDective
For six years, the Free Software Foundation Europe has been calling with a broad alliance for publicly funded software to be published as Free Software. This initiative has become a great success: Our demand "Public Money? Public Code!" has found its way into government strategy papers, party programs, as well as coalition treaties, and is being discussed in public administrations across Europe.
At the same time, we see less progress than expected and vendor lock ins remain a crucial issue. Digital sovereignty is redefined bypassing Free Software. There is openwashing in publicly funded companies, and government projects in favour of Free Software remain empty words. Public statistics on the procurement of Free Software are largely unavailable.
It is therefore no longer enough to promote the idea of "Public Money? Public Code!". We as the Free Software community should be even more vigilant than before – continuing to praise small steps in the right direction, but pointing out and criticising omissions and lack of implementation. We should become more like watchdogs.
In the talk we will look at some examples of lack of implementation of Free Software policies. We will discuss how we, as civil society, can identify such shortcomings and how to deal with them. We will present our initiative TEDective – a free-software solution that makes European public procurement data explorable for non-experts, aiming to provide you with a powerful tool to keep an eye on real progress towards "Public Money? Public Code!" across Europe.SFSCON23 - Gabriel Ku Wei Bin - Why Do We Need A Next Generation Internet

The Internet today forms the backbone of the digitisation of our society and economy. As connectivity increases, the boundaries between the real and digital world get increasingly blurred. However, there has been an erosion of trust in the Internet following revelations about the exploitation of personal data, large-scale cybersecurity and data breaches, and growing awareness of the proliferation and impacts of online disinformation.
What can be done to improve the Internet as a platform for future generations? What initiatives are currently in place to build key technological blocks of an Internet that supports human-centric values, such as privacy, security, and inclusion, while reflecting the values and norms all citizens should enjoy in Europe?
This talk will explore why the current state of the internet must be re-imagined and re-engineered in order to support healthy societies, the existing European Commission initiative to work towards doing so, and the role of Free Software in accomplishing these goals.SFSCON23 - Edoardo Scepi - The Brand-New Version of IGis Maps
2023 saw the launch, after a long and well-structured revision and development process, all based on a fruitful collaboration between several departments of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano, most of the township in South Tyrol, Informatica Alto Adige (SIAG - Technical partner) and the Consortium of Municipalities of the Province of Bolzano, of the new version of the integrated geographic data management system IGis Maps. In use for years in South Tyrol, has in the Consortium one of its most enthusiastic contributors and supporters.
The very first version was released about eight years ago and its implementation was based on the idea of creating a multi-purpose GIS management system that could support different types of users, that was highly customizable, and, above all, that could be widely shared among the various management entities, both public and private, present within our territory.
After years of use and ad-hoc developments, we can finally present the new version of the IGis Maps system, which incorporates all the technical and technological improvements we realized the system needed.
It was not just a major update together with new functionalities combined inside the previous software structure, but a true re-engineering that led, among other things, to a new and more efficient user interface, a major advancement regarding the internal security, an optimization and improvement of the entire editing section as well as an optimization of the section regarding the automatic geo-processes.
A mobile version is currently under development to better support any field activities, for which a very powerful option will be included, the possibility of creating special work sessions in off-line mode so as to be able to operate even in areas without a proper cellular line network coverage.
Other very important peculiarities concern that the system is developed using a totally free software code and infrastructure, that a detailed documentation has been produced to ensure sustainability to any further future evolution, even in case of technical partner turnover, and finally, that by taking advantage of the high standards and levels of security access can be guaranteed to any type of user. From professional users, through dedicated access and qualifications or, using the ordinary SPID, to the private citizen.
We will show examples of how different types of users and stakeholders now permanently use the system for the management of a variety of tasks related to their activities, and how it was possible to customize IGis Maps to create visualization and data management contexts that best meet their needs.
We will also present a related project concerning the updating and the correction of the new technical basal cartography, built upon the new Basic Core specification, achieved through the automatic conversion implemented by the SIAG team starting from the previous National Core cartography. With the new IGis Maps it was possible to create an a

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

Lee Barnes - Path to Becoming an Effective Test Automation Engineer.pdf
So… you want to become a Test Automation Engineer (or hire and develop one)? While there’s quite a bit of information available about important technical and tool skills to master, there’s not enough discussion around the path to becoming an effective Test Automation Engineer that knows how to add VALUE. In my experience this had led to a proliferation of engineers who are proficient with tools and building frameworks but have skill and knowledge gaps, especially in software testing, that reduce the value they deliver with test automation.
In this talk, Lee will share his lessons learned from over 30 years of working with, and mentoring, hundreds of Test Automation Engineers. Whether you’re looking to get started in test automation or just want to improve your trade, this talk will give you a solid foundation and roadmap for ensuring your test automation efforts continuously add value. This talk is equally valuable for both aspiring Test Automation Engineers and those managing them! All attendees will take away a set of key foundational knowledge and a high-level learning path for leveling up test automation skills and ensuring they add value to their organizations.

While there has been a marked emphasis on increasing diversity in these communities in recent years, numbers lag and the ability to foster inclusive environments remains challenging. With no standards or best practices for measuring inclusion, contributors, users and project teams lack the opportunity to make ethical, data-driven decisions. ● Evolution Currently, the goals are structured in the following focus areas : Code Development Activity, Code Development Efficiency and Code Development Process Quality. ● Risk Industry-standard metrics for risk in open source. Lack of metrics makes it difficult for business decision makers to compare open-source methods to alternatives. Lack of metrics makes it difficult to allocate resources optimally across projects, slowing decision making and product innovation. ● Value Community initiatives do not reflect the same value as other common organizational efforts. This results in community work often being undervalued by people, organizations, communities, and society. The Value working group aims to advance how we understand the value that projects can provide. What is Community Health? CHAOSS Focus Areas
