#myGov #FOI hearing reflections, and what comes next? https://openmygov.au/posts/2026-09-04-hearing-recap.html
END SECURITY BY OBSCURITY

Day 3 done - for us. The hearing in my #myGov Code Generator app #FOI case will wrap with a closed session, following examination of Prof Vanessa Teague and of me. Closing submissions to be in writing in a few weeks. It went as well as we could have hoped - maybe better! Thanks to all my supporters, and my legal team Jason, EJ and Tom.

Day 3 of 3 in the #myGov app source code #FOI hearing. Prof Vanessa Teague will give evidence at 10am, and I will be after Vanessa. Contact [email protected] and cite case 2025/4916 to request a link to join by videoconf (I am not 100% sure if they are offering that, but you can ask!). Or if you're in Melbourne, you can come in person: L5 15 William St.

Day two in the #myGov Code Generator source code #FOI review. Most of the day was a closed session cross-examining Mr McDonald (I and my representatives were excluded). The Tribunal assumes the role of the applicant in closed sessions. We were able to submit questions for the Tribunal to ask on our behalf, which they did.
The fact that the closed session ran so long reflects the technical nature of the matter and large volume of evidence. Perhaps it also suggests that the Respondent does not have an "ace in the hole" that makes the outcome a foregone conclusion.
Late afternoon we returned to open session. Dr Peter Serwylo gave evidence and was cross-examined in relation to the "counterfeiting" risk (which, per his evidence and common sense, exists regardless of the availability of source code).
We resume at 10am tomorrow with Professor Vanessa Teague to be examined first, then me. Closing submission are to be in writing and filed after the hearing (exact timeline TBD).
