Community This talk will be based on my experience as a member of the Free Software Association in Turkey. In a local freedom movement, many local factors affect the way that advocacy should be made, such as economical disadvantages, priorities, country dynamics, and the target audience. It is not always feasible to bring software freedom to the table in a country with low digital literacy and major political conflicts. For years, we have defined the problem and come up with some possible solutions, such as inviting already politicised groups to our movement and explaining software freedom in terms of their struggles, that may help other local communities too. Additionally, the Q&A section will allow the audience to share their struggles and discuss possible solutions. The goal of this talk is to help other local communities find possible reasons for their struggles, to show that these struggles are not specific to them, to give them some ideas about possible solutions, and to be inspired by suggestions of the audience.

The collective action model applies given the nature of provisioning—open source software is non-excludable and non-rivalry (Hippel & Krogh, 2003). Individual contributors author software or code that they and the public at large have free access to utilize as they see fit, while the group can use the software or code without contributing. Given the non-excludability of open source software, this creates free riders—those who benefit from that good on equal terms with those who contribute (Hardin & Cullity, 2003). As OSS has gained usage momentum beyond small bands of individual contributors into the masses at large, the need to understand how maintainable motivation for those contributors works. In this talk, Justin Ribeiro explores the current state of the research regarding motivations in OSS as well with a look forwards towards the impact of free riders and how their behavior affects the nature of contribution from authors within OSS.

Modern CDNs employ various software on their edges: web caching and load balancing HTTPS proxies to deliver and cache client content, web application firewalls to block web attacks and typically DPDK- or XDP-based custom solutions to mitigate volumetric DDoS attacks. In this talk we discuss the open source software typically used to build the data plane even on very powerful CDN edges (e.g. Nginx and ModSecurity). While you can quickly build your own CDN edge using the popular open source software, there are limitations and corner use cases, which lead nearly every CDN at some point to deep modifications of Nginx and writing their own XDP- or DPDK-based software. Tempesta FW is an open source hybrid of an HTTPS accelerator and firewall, which was designed specifically for the CDN use cases. Tempesta FW is built into the Linux TCP/IP stack, so it perfectly integrates with Linux netfilter to provide multi-layer firewalling rules. SIMD-accelerated HTTP parser and very fast TLS handshakes allow it to process HTTPS transaction with smallest latency. However, it also has its own limitations and it should be integrated with other open source software to to get the most powerful CDN edges.

As well as career changers from outside the industry, people frequently move between generalist and specialist roles, or switch to emerging areas such as DevOps and machine learning. Just as a blender makes a different kind of smoothie to a food processor, your choice of technical tools should depend on the type of job that you're doing. All projects involve some degree of uncertainty, no matter how effective the planning phase is. However, one advantage of having experience outside of your current job is that you can bring different frameworks, methodologies, and thought processes to the table. Contributing to open-source software, and involvement in the FOSS community, can be a valuable source of knowledge on ways of working, particularly when you're working for an organisation that's on a budget. However, it can be difficult to know how to translate that expertise into a commercial environment, or one where open-source isn't valued. So how do we apply lessons from the open-source world at non-FOSS companies? What kinds of questions should we ask to determine the best way to solve problems, and how can we use our expertise to recover from process-induced failure?

This presentation is targeted to folks with "beginner to intermediate" level knowledge. Attendees will benefit most if they have a basic understanding of: - what docker containers are - how to run services on a linux server - using a domain registrar and setting DNS records I plan to show and explain/walk-through a sample docker-compose.yml file to tie the abstract concepts to a real-world implementation.

Community The success of an Open Source community depends on how healthy the Community is. Hence, It is important when building the right community should be the topmost priority of any open-source organization. It helps achieve a healthy community where the members have equal inclusion. We often think of a successful open source project as one that just tackles a challenge for the public. This perception has driven several open source project owners to start innovative open source projects without any plans on how to manage the community behind this project. In the end, increasing the number of dormant open source projects already existing. A successful open source project is one that is built on the collaborative effort of a healthy community. A properly coordinated community can plan and build projects and unanimously work together to ensure sustainable project performance. The responsibility of achieving a successful open source community does not rest on the community managers or the program managers alone but also on the whole community. During this session, I will be sharing; 1. How you can accept and implement feedback from members 2. Improve the onboarding process for your new Contributors 3. The importance of community first approach in Open Source Community and a lot more. The success of an Open Source community depends on how healthy the Community is.

Somewhere along their educational journey, girls and people of color who initially were interested in STEM are no longer considering it as a career choice. Aarti Ramkrishna is an award-winning educator from the state of Oregon; who is building equity focused classroom curricula for school districts from Kindergarten - 5th grade. While building this curriculum, Aarti will discuss her observations of children and adults and how racism and misogyny permeates education and why there is a leaky pipeline that blocks potential amazing humans from entering or thriving in STEM.
