Did you miss #OSSNA last month?

Why not catch up on some of the content including Ben Dooks’ talk: ‘The Big-Endian RISC-V Linux Adventure’?

Ben covers the new ISA feature from the initial modifications to support building QEMU, OpenSBI and Linux in big endian, the issues and debugging done to get this working.

Watch the talk here: https://www.codethink.co.uk/events.html

There's a nice article out there by @jzb summarizing @matt's recent #OSSNA presentation on his work on #AccessKit and "Newton", the new #accessibility architecture for #Wayland and the future of #GNOME & #Linux for assistive technologies: https://lwn.net/Articles/971541/

I have to say I really appreciated the Seattle Convention Center "Summit" building where the Open Source Summit was held last week. It's a really beautiful, airy space with tons of natural light. #ossna #OpenSourceSummit #OSSummit

The FSF was also present at #OSSNA. Many thanks to the dedicated volunteers who made this possible!

Gave my talk! Now off to the airport for my flight home to London. #ossummit #opensourcesummit #ossna

@openssf’s Dana Wang on stage this morning at #opensourcesummit : “open source is critical digital infrastructure.” Yes. #ossummit #ossna

Giving my talk later this morning on Wide Review in #Standards, heavily leaning in on #Ethics and #HumanRights. Then it's back home, finally, after 2 weeks on the road. https://sched.co/1aBPU #ossna #OpenSourceSummit #osssummit

Enjoying the knowledge shared by @vmbrasseur about #OpenSource governance, aka "infrastructure for humans". Valuable insights – read them here:

It’s @jorge talking dinosaurs & cloud native journeys! Thanks for the reminder to think in ‘deep time’, step back, and appreciate the evolutionary complexity of the software ecosystem. #ossna
