Code Reuse Attacks and How to Find Them - Edward Schwartz, Carnegie Mellon University
Finding code reuse attacks is a mandatory step for exploiting software vulnerabilities in the real world. In this talk, Ed will explain the history of defenses that led to the creation of code reuse attacks, and a gentle introduction to one of the most well-known examples, Return-Oriented Programming (ROP). He will briefly introduce some of his own research, which measures how much code an attacker needs access to in order to perform such attacks. (Short answer: very little.) Finally, he will explain some of the concrete actions that developers can take to harden their software against code reuse attacks on a variety of platforms.

Releasing Code as Open Source Made Easy - SAP's Process and Tooling - Peter Giese, SAP SE
Managing open source at scale in global enterprises is all about continuous improvement. In this presentation, Peter will describe the evolution of SAP’s outbound open source process and tooling from its initial state that often took several weeks and required lots of manual steps to its current form that only takes a few days and is largely automated.

SAP‘s new and improved process for releasing code as open source enables developers to easily start a new open source project and contribute code while being compliant and secure. The entire process workflow is automated and executed via GitHub in order to seamlessly integrate it into the standard development toolset of our developer community. This way our developers and our OSPO members benefit from using the same tooling that allows them to have full transparency into the status of any given request while being able to manage open source projects at scale with enterprise-grade quality and security.

Panel Discussion: How Open Source Changed Enterprise Systems Computing - Jessica Murillo, IBM; Alan Clark, SUSE; Len Santalucia, Vicom Infinity
This presentation will showcase the 50-year history of Enterprise Systems Computing and how prevalent open source has become on the large systems platform today.  From challenges to solutions and the mistakes that got us where we are today, we’ll show you how open source projects like Open Mainframe Project and Hyperledger are impacting this industry. We’ll share use cases, best practices, and real-world experiences.

For example, OMP’s Zowe is only two years old and is already production-ready and deployable. Leveraging the Zowe framework, we’ll walk through a live demo called VIVA, Vicom Infinity Voice Assistant, which enables commanding an entire Enterprise Hybrid Mutlicloud System securely with the human voice. VIVA is the "frenemy of Alexa" and we’ll show you the process of how to develop your very own in open source.

10 Million Packages Later: Open Source Licensing Clarity Solved at Scale - Philippe Ombredanne, Scancode Toolkit and nexB Inc.
Because open source licensing clarity should be not be an issue, ClearlyDefined is solving license clarity and compliance issues at scale and for everyone by scanning and reviewing every FOSS project licenses. 10 million package scans later, learn the license ways and issues of key FOSS package ecosystems and discover in depth the state of open source licensing clarity with ClearlyDefined open data.

What if every the licensing of every open source package were clearly defined? The mission of the ClearlyDefined project is exactly that: help free and open source software projects be more successful through clarity in licensing.

How? by massively scanning for license and origin all the packages and then reviewing these scans one by one for accuracy in the open with a community of license curators (and with a bit of machine assistance too).

Join me to survey the licensing approach of FOSS package ecosystems (both for system/Linux distro and application packages) and review in depth the state of open source licensing clarity and quality using the ClearlyDefined open data set.

Seven Hard Truths about Open Source Community - Karen Chu & Matt Butcher, Microsoft
In OSS, managing a project may not get easier as it gets more successful. We like to think that attracting lots of users means success, & success means spreading the workload. But sometimes managing a successful OSS project actually comes with unexpected work. In this talk, we cover hard lessons learned from managing OSS projects:

1.More than code needs to be open–ex. using HackMD, not Google Docs
2.Multiple projects, same team–one team with many projects has its own pros/cons
3.Bad actors in the space
4.Open decision making is part of OSS–making trade offs w/ time, resources & features
5.Branding is more important expected–Devs care that your website is pretty+logo is hip
6.Success=criticism–Pioneering a new space means early benefits but critics catch up
7.Pick sustainable tooling–Freemium/limited tools can cause churn in projects. What happens when you’ve used up your free allotment?

The Common Configuration Scoring System for Kubernetes Security - Julien Sobrier, Octarine Labs Inc.
The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is widely used to score vulnerabilities found in docker images. But how do you score the risk level of an entire workload, with its runtime configurations, network configurations, Pod Security Policy, privileges and capabilities added, etc.?

Julien will explore the Kubernetes Common Configuration Scoring System (KCCSS), an open-source framework to calculate risk scores for Kubernetes workloads, and kube-scan, an open-source scanner that implements the KCCSS. Based on CVSS, it categorizes risks associated with each runtime setting while considering how settings affect one another, and offers a global risk score for each workload—not just for individual settings. Attendees will learn how the KCCSS works, how it’s being used by end users for DevSecOps, and best practices for bullet proofing their own K8s applications.

Bill of Material of Software - Bringing Compliance and Security Together - Michael C. Jaeger, FOSSology.org/Siemens AG & Ron Munitz, PSCG Group
In the first part, this session covers two main questions about software bill of materials (SBOMs): First, why do we need a software bill of material? It explains the legal background for trade compliance, cyber security, and license compliance requirements. Secondly, it explains what happens, if we ignore SBOM w.r.t. trade compliance, cyber security and license compliance.
The second part of this session explains what can be done today already: Explaining a process view and technical view and examples of how to deal with SBOMs. We will conclude the discussion with listing and comparing the common challenges in the software cyber security world, and the best practices of solving them (mostly towards hardened systems through toolchains, OS configuration emphasis and more), discussing the chain between the SBOM and the final artifacts, considering problems with binaries and BLOBs, and comparing against solutions in other domains such as signatures, vulnerabilities, and their deficiencies.

Leveraging Data Science to Quantify Open Source Project Health & Security - Alyssa Miller & Geva Solomonovich, Snyk
Understanding the health and security posture of open source projects can be a challenge for software development organizations. These challenges can make utilizing open source resources a high-risk proposition for enterprise environments. However, researchers are leveraging new metrics and machine learning models, to develop unique ways to quantify the health and relative security posture of open source projects.

In this discussion, we'll discuss work that is being done in both academics and private business to establish tangible measures of open source project health. We'll share some of the initial results of this ongoing research as well as lessons learned and a vision of where this research is headed.

The session will discuss how these new measures of project health can be put to practical use. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how quantifying the trustworthiness of projects can enable developers. We'll demonstrate how this enablement can improve both development efficiency and overall security posture of applications.

Panel Discussion: Fostering Diversity and Inclusion in Open Source Communities and Events - Georg Link, CHAOSS; Dawn Foster, Pivotal & Matt Germonprez, University of Nebraska at Omah
While it is well recognized that diversity and inclusion are central to the health of open source communities, numbers lag and the ability to foster inclusive environments remains challenging. The CHAOSS Project’s Diversity & Inclusion Workgroup is focused on establishing a set of community-curated, peer-validated, research-informed standards and best practices to measure, and in turn, increase, diversity and inclusion across open source communities. An example of this is the 2020 Apache Community Survey that incorporated CHAOSS D&I metrics. Further, events are important for bringing our communities together and take an important role in our works. One idea in particular that we pursue this year is a badging program for open source community events. Join us to learn about insights from our work and the progress we’ve made against our objectives to date. Help shape this work by telling us how you encourage and achieve diversity and inclusion, or plan to, in your own communities.

Open Source Policy @ Scale - Jeff McAffer, GitHub & Justin Colannino, Microsoft
Releasing software responsibly is hard: you need to respect dependency license obligations, privacy, and ensure security vulnerabilities are addressed. In modern software development, projects often have thousands of free and open source dependencies in their supply chain and ship continuously. In such a system, the risks compound: a problem with a dependency becomes your problem.

Enabling high-confidence, rapid delivery, requires automation and deep integration into the engineering system and throughout the project’s lifecycle. Similarly, policies must be automation-ready -- they must clearly define the risks being mitigated and opportunities unlocked in, machine-understable ways, minimizing the need for human intervention. Iteratively simplifying and refactoring policies to get to their core is essential.

Can we even create such policies? If so, how? What do they look like? What data do they need? And what actions can/should they promote. How do you automate these? Can policies and tools help us comply with all the terms (e.g., notice of rights) in the components we use?

Uniting the Edge for Tomorrow's Demands - Arpit Joshipura, The Linux Foundation
Edge devices are slated to exceed 20 billion by 2020. For IoT to succeed in these devices, the currently fragmented edge market needs to be able to work together to identify and protect against problematic security vulnerabilities and advance a common, constructive vision for the future of the industry.

The Linux Foundation's LF Edge is part of this solution. It is an umbrella organization to establish an open, interoperable framework for edge computing independent of hardware, silicon, cloud, or operating system, will help ensure greater harmonization to accelerate deployment and bridge the gaps in the open source technologies to support the emerging Edge use cases.

The Edge use cases from Industrial, Enterprise and Consumer spanning multiple edges and domains are being addressed by the LF Edge Projects including Akraino Edge Stack, Baetyl, EdgeX Foundry, Fledge, Home Edge, Open Glossary of Edge Computing and Project EVE. The projects within LF Edge are focused to address specific needs of the industry and complement each other to support a cohesive solution.

All are Welcome Here: Creating an Inclusive Open Source Community - Nimesh Bhatia, IBM & Tracy Kuhrt, Accenture
In the Hyperledger Community, the phrase “All Are Welcome Here” is a common message heard around Hyperledger events, meetings and other community interactions. However, how does the community ensure and fulfill that promise? Most open source communities are not single entities and are comprised of many smaller groups that form around WGs, SIGs, and projects. With so many groups, meetings, mailing lists how can respective community leaders effectively create an inclusive and civil environment to cultivate a diverse community? This session will go through the best practices for conducting meetings, writing code reviews and enabling asynchronous collaboration to create an inclusive environment.

More than Just Licenses: Compliance and Conformance for Linux Foundation Projects - Steve Winslow, The Linux Foundation
More than Just Licenses: Compliance and Conformance for Linux Foundation Projects

In open source projects, the topic of “compliance” is often seen as primarily referring to open source license compliance. It’s understandable why this is the case, as license compliance is an extremely important issue and is relevant to all projects. But “compliance” encompasses a broader set of considerations where FOSS projects can help themselves, and their communities, by taking steps to comply with legal and regulatory obligations and to support community members’ related expectations.

In this talk, we will walk through different aspects of the compliance support activities that the LF provides to its projects. We will discuss license compliance and scanning, but will also go beyond it to discuss other compliance topics such as export controls and data privacy. We will also briefly discuss project trademarks and the related role that conformance programs can play in enabling a diverse yet interoperable ecosystem of downstream solutions.

Keynote: Operationalizing a Global, Circular IT Industry is Both Our Opportunity and Imperative - Ali Fenn, President, ITRenew
The global IT industry is responsible for 4% of global emissions and on track to double by 2025.  In the data center world, we are collectively doing a decent job driving advances in operational energy efficiency.  But this is only part of the puzzle, one-third of the puzzle in fact.  To truly assess and address the environmental impact of data center equipment, it is imperative to include both pre-use (embodied) and post-EOL costs of the massive scaling of our collective infrastructure.  In this session, we will explore the true total cost of equipment, and the opportunity represented by circular data centers to redefine lifetimes, and maximize both financial value and sustainability.  Operationalizing circular data centers means enabling a global, circular IT hardware industry, and to do so catalyzes both financial and environmental opportunity, and democratized access to growth.   We’ll talk about what this entails, the role of open hardware, what’s happening now, and what is at stake.

Revitalizing an Open Source Community - Nurturing the New Contributors to Carry on the Baton - Till Kamppeter, Open Printing
“Revitalizing an Open Source Community - Nurturing the new contributors to carry on the baton”

As a matter of fact, there are many technologies and Open Source software that the world uses daily without valuing the need for the same. As a result, contributors feel it to be less lucrative to work on these projects since these are very less talked about topics. One such classic example is printing. Even though we know that however digitized we may be, we can not live without printing but on the technological front there are very few contributors in this space.

This session is to talk about how we can nurture potential candidates when they are in their schools, train and develop them to make them efficient contributors for carrying the baton forward.

Open Source is not only about great technical contributions. Leadership and people management is also an important aspect to make and bond a community together. Forming and building the community is very essential for the long term sustainability of an Open Source Organisation.

Managing Your GitHub Presence @ Scale - Jeff McAffer, GitHub
Organizations with more than a handful of repositories hosted on GitHub quickly find that manually managing their presence (repositories, teams, members, permissions, etc.) is time-consuming and error-prone. When the number of repositories grows to dozens, or even hundreds, manual management is completely impractical.

This session will outline the problem space and demonstrate one technique for automated management of these resources, using the "infrastructure as code" model and HashiCorp's Terraform tool. The presenter(s) will demonstrate how standard 'recipes' for repositories can be constructed, applied to both new and existing repositories, and how changes to those recipes can easily be applied when the organization desires to take advantage of new GitHub features or to apply a different policy.

The presentation will also address 'identity management': connecting each person's GitHub identity with their organization identity, and some pitfalls in that area.

Software Supply Chain Attacks and You - Kim Lewandowski & Dan Lorenc, Google
In this talk, we will explain what software supply chain attacks are, what you need to know about them, and how you can start to protect yourself.

Supply Chain attacks are nothing new to containers and cloud native computing. In fact, they predate software! But they are on the rise, and several aspects of containerized software make them easier to carry out and more lucrative. In fact, supply chain attacks increased by 78 percent in 2019, according to Symantec.

Container images are much larger and more opaque than traditional software artifacts, making it easier to hide malicious code inside them. And container build tools are powerful enough to package code in any language, making it easier to accidentally include some compromised code.

Not all hope is lost, though! In this talk, you'll also learn how to protect yourself against the most common attacks today, what work is going on across the industry to help solve the problem at its roots, and how you can get involved.

Secrets to becoming a Successful Open Source Board or Committee Volunteer – A Balance of Work and Play - Tracy Ragan, DeployHub
‘Not enough time’ or ‘too much on my plate’ are just two of the excuses I hear when recruiting folks to get involved in the Continuous Delivery Foundation. I get that – really I do. I was born to volunteer. From rebuilding a historical ballpark, serving on the Eclipse Org and now playing a role in launching the CDF, I’ve figured out how to serve my community. In this session I will give the secrets to my success as a volunteer. First, we will look at motivation – why get involved. Second, how to find where you can best serve. Third, we will look at balancing regular work with the play of volunteering. We will discuss ways to organize both your work and volunteer service to optimize your time. You will learn how one role can enhance the experience of the other. In open source, there are more ways to participate than just being a committer. If you serve a different role in the software development process, I’m guessing your open source community needs that expertise desperately.

Do We Need an Industrial Grade Linux? - Steffen Evers, Bosch IO
Bosch like many other industrial companies use GNU/Linux as an operating system for a large portion of the devices they produce in particular in the IoT context. While Linux distributions have done a great job to compile and maintain a consistent set of packages to provide the software stack for these devices it still requires huge extra efforts to fulfil the increasing requirements over the entire device life cycle that is currently done internally for each device.
As it is based on open source the question is if a significant part of this work could also be done in an open source way with all the positive effects that we can see in the community.
Bosch has done one step into this direction by releasing some of this product work as open source in the Apertis project.
In this talk Steffen would like to share their experience, the challenges they encountered, what they learned and what the next steps could be.

From Metrics to Practice: The CHAOSS Project’s Work in Improving Open Source Project Health Transparency - Matt Germonprez, University of Nebraska at Omaha & Sean Goggins, University of Missouri
Today, organizations engaged with open source projects often rely on a collection of rare super-experts to construct approximations on the health of open source projects. Reliance on super-experts makes it difficult for organizations to consistently understand their open source engagements strategically. As such, indicators of healthy engagements appear haphazard to program managers accustomed to clearer guidance. To address this problem, the CHAOSS project focuses on understanding how open source projects are represented and understood in predictable and measurable ways.

In this presentation, Matt and Sean focus on how the CHAOSS project turns abstract ideas of open source project health into clearer guidance. The presentation will focus on work occurring in CHAOSS towards making key health concerns regarding project risk and project diversity & inclusion more concrete -- highlighting CHAOSS efforts that include a detailed report on the Zephyr Community and strategic advances focused on Diversity & Inclusion, such as the D&I Badging Program.

New projects appear at an ever-increasing pace and they come backed by the industry in an equally growing number. New projects emerge and existing one fades away, or are they?

Many are the open source projects that are proven successful over the years and it is impossible to overlook Linux and the sheer world domination it has gained. Yet, some of these projects do seem to run out of steam after a couple of years, how come? Further, commercial adoption of some technologies take much longer than the initial industry attention would indicate, why is it so?

This panel will discuss the vendor perspective of successful open source technologies in the different phases of the technology and community, what makes a vendor invest and participate in technology and what in the end makes a project so successful that a vendor includes them in their offerings.

From Users to Contributors: A Journey to Open Development - Tracy Kuhrt, Accenture
Accenture has a long history of utilizing OSS to deliver client value but has also faced impediments to working in an open community. Traditionally client contracting norms prohibited work products from reaching the community, which then created a default posture allergic and misinformed about OSS.

In 2019, Accenture achieved a milestone by contributing two innovative projects to Hyperledger Labs: Blockchain Automation Framework and Blockchain Integration Framework. By releasing the code to a third-party community and by committing to working in an open manner, these projects are already off to a much different trajectory!

This session will focus on the lessons learned in Accenture’s open development journey:
• Breaking through cultural bias
• Establishing leadership support
• Clearing internal impediments
• (Re)Training a team of contributors to move from closed to open development
• Committing to community transparency

Doing it Right: A Healthy Approach to Open Source Software for the Semiconductor and Consumer Products Industries - Michael Turquette, BayLibre, Inc.
It's no secret that Open Source software is leveraged heavily in the embedded markets. From automotive IVI units to smart speakers with voice assistants to mobile phones, Open Source software powers all of it. But not all software is created equal, and there is growing consensus that the embedded and IoT industry could be doing better: software releases based on recent versions, more timely updates, and increased engagement with the FOSS community.

Leading this new guard is the Rich IoT program at MediaTek, a program that's simultaneously challenging the status quo around semiconductor software quality as well as the way product developers design their products and get to market.

Leveraging a very close partnership with BayLibre, a french open source software engineering firm, the Rich IoT program is improving quality and customer satisfaction, while reducing overall costs for OEMs and end customers. Michael Turquette, CEO at BayLibre, will explain the economic benefits behind this new style of partnership, and why it just might be the future of how consumer electronics are made.

Panel Discussion: How to Scale a Telecom Standardization Project in Open Source? The Journey of CNTT - Gergely Csatari & Jonne Soininen, Nokia; Heather Kirksey, The Linux Foundation; Abdel Rabi, Vodafone Group
In this panel, we will discuss the story of initiating and scaling of CNTT from three perspectives.
CNTT was started by telecom operators to standardize the cloud infrastructures required by the different VNF vendors. It initiated as an invite-only and operator exclusive activity. Later it was open sourced with the help of the Linux Foundation and everyone, including the telecom vendors were invited to join.

Now it is a diverse community working on the different parts of the specification and with released artifacts.
We will cover this journey from the perspective of a telecom operator, the Linux Foundation and a telecom vendor.

OpenOPF Mitigating Wildfire Risk with Open Source Edge Computing - Michael Enescu, Energy Adaptive Networks & Peter Enescu, University of San Diego
Recent wildfires in Australia and California have recharged the debate about fire management, terrestrial ecosystem complexity and dynamical control in the wake of irreversible climate change. With a widening gap between utilities locked in aging, proprietary ecosystems, unable to deploy modern technologies based on shared, trusted, open systems, several opportunities emerge. OpenOPF (Optimal Power Flow), is a first step towards a series of new open source projects targeted at solving robustness tradeoffs in the wake of catastrophic disasters that could be prevented at scale.

Is "Just Contribute" Good Enough for Your Company's Open Source Policy? - Ruth Suehle, Red Hat
Do you know what your company's open source contribution policies are? Are they written down? Are they complete -- or even /too/ complete? And whose interests do they consider? If you don't have one at all, why should you bother?

In 2019, Red Hat moved from a largely unwritten policy that amounted to "just contribute" to a formal written policy. It was created through collaboration with the entire company, without changing the "just contribute" spirit or restricting our employees. In fact, we don't even call it a policy -- we call it our contribution guidelines. In this talk, you'll learn how and why we did it after 26 years.

Join Ruth Suehle to look at all the things that you should consider when creating (or amending) your own company's contribution policy and some examples outside of Red Hat.

Open Mainframe Project - The Little Engine that Could - John Mertic, The Linux Foundation
Since its launch in 2015, Open Mainframe Project has slowly gained technical momentum and grown the ecosystem. With more than 30 partners and members, 2019 was a turning point for the project. We doubled the number of projects that are hosted and became more of an umbrella much like CNCF and Hyperledger. This is an extraordinary accomplishment, which speaks to the commitment that companies of all sizes have made to be good partners in the OMP community.

In this session, John Mertic will outline growing pains and strategies that have helped
OMP break apart from the pack and become an umbrella with nine different but complementary open source projects underneath it. OMP has a technical infrastructure that lets contributors share responsibility for the project, which ensures that the people contributors trust with decision making are in-fact granted ownership over that decision making and also that responsibilities are distributed rather than centralized whenever possible. John will also discuss some of the new OMP projects and how to jump start their TSC and contributors.

Why InnerSource is a Critical Component of FOSS Sustainability - Danese Cooper, NearForm, Ltd.
InnerSource is the use of modern massive peer-based software development engineering methods proven in thousands of FOSS projects over the past 20 years, inside of proprietary companies. Most long-established companies are interested in increasing collaboration and full-stack knowledge and they’re looking to InnerSource. Meanwhile, FOSS developers feel empowered to collaborate, but as the FOSS movement has grown, cracks in sustainability starting to show in the form of maintainer burnout, lack of sufficient or appropriate corporate support for FOSS, and a real shortage of people willing and able to lead FOSS into the future ... So how can InnerSource help FOSS Sustainability? Learn from someone who has been thinking about how to grow the pool of qualified FOSS developers and to improve corporate support for FOSS basically since the term Open Source was coined. You'll hear about specific actions every developer and every company can take to improve software engineering whether FOSS or proprietary, and help sustain the precious FOSS ecosystem through the next generation.

Driving grass roots innovation at a large company is never easy. When you target a customer segment that the company views as esoteric (open source developers) and whose expectations and methods are foreign to that entity it gets even trickier.

Barton George will take you through Project Sputnik a skunkworks effort at Dell to create a community driven Linux laptop. He will walk you through the internal selling and education needed to get management comfortable with the project’s three guiding principles, 1) engage and involve the community, 2) maintain transparency and 3) give back. He will also talk about how after the first product launched one group after another wanted to know why resources were being spent on a project serving a niche audience, and whose yearly volumes were what other lines “sold in Belgium, on Tuesday between 2 and 3 in the afternoon.”

At the end of the presentation Barton will share the team’s five key learnings that have enabled them to not only survive but thrive in an often hostile environment.

How Not to Drown in Security Scan Results - Nicole Schwartz & Philippe Lafoucrière, GitLab
Do you need to roll out an application security testing plan? Have you rolled one out only for everyone to ignore the results because they are overwhelming? You aren’t alone.

Security professionals have been asking developers to implement security scanners into their software projects in order to find vulnerabilities as early as possible, meet compliance standards, and allow security teams to focus on more complex findings instead of simple items scanners can usually find.

However, the issue comes in with the next steps. How do you start? After you setup scanners how do you handle the overwhelming volume of initial results?

The Proof is in the Jelly: How to Write Amazing Open Source Docs - Ben Lloyd Pearson, Nylas
To write great documentation, a writer must be able to channel their deep technical comprehension into clear, concise, and purposeful information. Given the complexity of this challenge, it’s no wonder that it’s often an overlooked component of open source projects. How often have you encountered docs that feel more like an obstacle to overcome rather than an enabler of success? Maybe you feel this way about your own documentation and aren’t sure where to start.

This talk will use one of America’s favorite foods, the peanut butter and jelly sandwich, to explain how to write documentation that is persuasive, sets your users up for success, and enables them to explore more deeply on their own. You will come away with a practical approach to ensure that your documentation meets the needs of your users and is serving as a conduit of growth to expand your open source community.

How to See Your Own Bias - Aeva Black, Microsoft Azure
Five years ago, I was running one of OpenStack's hottest projects and my career was skyrocketting upwards, but that changed when I brought my gender expression inline with my gender identity. As a result of transitioning, I experienced a shift in bias that no one could have prepared me for -- but it's not what you're thinking.

In the two years that followed, I received over 30 rejections for roles and levels that I had previously held. I anticipated that I would run into stereotypes and negative bias, but the most surprising change in bias was internal.

Years of practising meditation gave me a direct awareness that our perceptions are coloured by our past experiences, but as this body's hormones changed, so too did my own perception of the world!

The interplay between memory and sensation, which occurs continually in each of us, is known as "perception bias", and I have some news for you: we're all biased -- and that's OK.

What matters is what we do with it.

Source Code to Cloud-deployment: Metadata Framework for Transparency, Compliance and Trust - Santiago Torres-Arias, New York University & Kate Stewart, The Linux Foundation
Software supply chains today are vulnerable to a wide set of compromises, mostly due to the fact that parts are opaque. We’re missing effective ways to express the elements transparently and accurately. By pulling open source software efforts together we would like to create a framework of tools and formats that can provide insight, and enable verification of the elements used to create products, from the version control systems, though to deployment on embedded devices, and into cloud images. Building on the starting points from the In-toto and SPDX ecosystems we can extend them to solve this challenge and provide a fully-transparent pipeline that covers from development and into deployment. This approach will be demo’d in the talk.

Distributed open source communities pioneered tools and techniques for building software that have forever changed how we build, test, and deploy software. In this talk, we’ll explore how open source embodies knowledge and experience, and how it enables ideas to spread and grow. We’ll also discuss why we believe that the most impactful open source projects are like a banyan tree, starting from a small seed of an idea and growing out to be giant canopies for communities.

Managing Corporate Interest while Driving Coherent Communities - Daria Gurova, Scality
Think about the greatest companies in the world. What is it they have in common? In those companies, people are not afterthoughts but the focus and the purpose. And before we understand that every company with its values and resources shapes the very fabric of society, changes the world we live in, there is no chance for real success, the kind every business strives for.

Dasha will talk about some challenges she faces building a customer community, why it's important to put time, effort and resources into building and sustaining it. She will also talk about the ways to motivate and engage other teams trough the community and how to align the company's economic logic with the community purpose. Lastly, she will share the approach she is using to build the community for Scality.

Open Sourcing Africa - Sander van Vugt & Santos Ver Chibenga, Living Open Source Foundation
One of our Zambian sponsors wanted to shift to an open-source policy. Due to the scarcity of local talent, they needed to fly in consultants from Europe, for a daily rate that is equivalent to 3 local monthly salaries. After the pilot, the project was killed as it was less expensive to use proprietary software.

This talk explains how Living Open Source Foundation is educating Africans in Open Source technology with the help of Linux Foundation. This is a challenging mission, as the foundation of IT education is weak in many countries. Nevertheless, participants to the large scale events organised is huge, with more than 500 participants in Malawi.

This talk is a happy story that explains how Open Source can change local economies. At the same time this talk is calling for potential sponsors, because a lot is needed to make a sustainable change. The talk will give an overview of current projects.

Creating the World Leading Open Source Technology for Smart Cities - Juanjo Hierro, FIWARE Foundation e. V.
Juanjo will describe how the FIWARE technology and the ecosystem around was created within a PPP of the European Commission together with several European companies. These companies are global corporates SMEs as well as innovative startups. In total, 500 million Euro were invested into the FIWARE development. To bring all this investment into a sustainable future, the FIWARE Foundation was created three years ago.

Born in Europe the FIWARE technology in the meantime is the leading open source technology for Smart Cities around the globe but the technology is also used in Agriculture, Energy and Industry 4.0. Partner companies have used the software buildings block, the reference architecture, the standard API as well as the standard data models to create more than 150 platforms and solutions - all of them are presented on the FIWARE market place. In several projects, the FIWARE Foundation is working together with the Linux Foundation like in LF Energy.

How I Learned to Love the Rebuild: How to Know When to Reinvest in your Systems - Rob Zuber, CircleCI
There’s a saying about perfectly architected systems: we’ve never heard of them, because they rarely get off the ground. When you first get going, the only thing you should focus on is finding product-market fit. Picking the stack that works right now, fast, is the right choice. Yet, once you reach critical mass, waiting too long to re-architect can torpedo your reliability and ability to grow. So, how do you know when it’s time to pause and reinvest in your systems? What are the signs that it is time to break things apart?

Knowing what this transition looks like, and accepting that every company that has velocity will eventually get here, will help you understand the retooling your system is a sign of success, not of failure.

Preserving Privacy in Data - Gordon Haff, Red Hat
Deep learning and machine learning more broadly depend on large quantities of data to develop accurate predictive models. In areas such as medical research, sharing data among institutions can lead to even greater value. However, data often includes personally identifiable information that we may not want to (or even be legally allowed to) share with others. Traditional anonymization techniques only help to some degree.

In this talk, Red Hat's Gordon Haff will share with you the active research activity taking place in academia and elsewhere into techniques such as multi-party computation and homomorphic encryption. The goal of this research is to enable broad information sharing leading to better models while preserving the anonymity of individual data points.

Using Open Source in Research and Development to Explore New Technologies - Christoph H Lameter, Independent
When researching new technologies one often has to deal with new hardware and new software that is required to operate the new hardware. How does one actually do this and what are the issues that one has with vendors that may want to keep the software proprietary. This is in particular an issue if one operates a open source dominated software ecosystem in a company.

The operation of an R&D infrastructure necessarily also involves tool for prototyping and testing and the open source community provides a unique set of tools and techniques to enable such endeavors in a rapid fashion that is not commonly possible with traditional tools that are heavy in support needs and in the learning curve to get these tools deployed. The open source community relies frequently on individual contributors in large communities. Such open source ecosystem must provide tools and methods to enable new developers to contribute to these projects with minimal effort.
