WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:05.000 Good morning. 00:05.000 --> 00:07.000 Good morning. 00:07.000 --> 00:08.000 Good morning. 00:08.000 --> 00:09.000 Good morning. 00:09.000 --> 00:10.000 Good morning. 00:10.000 --> 00:15.000 What a wonderful place to be on the Sunday morning at 9 o'clock in the morning. 00:15.000 --> 00:17.000 Isn't it great? 00:17.000 --> 00:23.000 Who wouldn't want to talk about European legislation at 9 o'clock in the Sunday morning? 00:23.000 --> 00:27.000 So, I'm Simon Fipps. 00:27.000 --> 00:34.000 I and the people who you see here have somehow scraped together a devroom for you. 00:34.000 --> 00:37.000 So, Jordan has done almost all of the work. 00:37.000 --> 00:39.000 The actual work. 00:39.000 --> 00:44.000 He claims he hasn't. 00:44.000 --> 00:46.000 That's how you know he has. 00:46.000 --> 00:54.000 He's an axle here and we have also got in the devroom managers list a Felipe who is going to be here soon. 00:54.000 --> 00:55.000 He promises. 00:55.000 --> 01:01.000 And we're going to take it in turns to where the ugly blue shirt and the Sebastian as well. 01:01.000 --> 01:04.000 So, Sebastian is another one of the organizers. 01:04.000 --> 01:15.000 So, the general theory today is that we would like to get you in a position where you can meet other people who are like-minded. 01:15.000 --> 01:21.000 It's a little bit like if you ever ask yourself why you send your children to school. 01:21.000 --> 01:29.000 When you send them to school, one big reason is because having them at home is something you don't want to do all the time. 01:29.000 --> 01:37.000 Another big reason is because you would like them to learn mathematics and you'd like them to learn how to write and things. 01:37.000 --> 01:43.000 But the main reason you send children to school is so that they end up as good adults. 01:43.000 --> 01:46.000 And this devroom has got different layers as well. 01:46.000 --> 01:52.000 So, there are some great talks from more assertive speakers and those are good things. 01:52.000 --> 02:02.000 But the main reason to come here is so that you end up with a signal address book full of light people who can help you navigate the wave of new legislation that's coming. 02:02.000 --> 02:06.000 Some of the people in the room are people who are writing the legislation. 02:06.000 --> 02:11.000 They're all in disguise so you can't easily work out who they are. 02:11.000 --> 02:17.000 So, just say what you think about what your needs are. 02:17.000 --> 02:23.000 You don't have to be angry about anything because the people who you would be angry towards already know your angry. 02:23.000 --> 02:26.000 So you don't need to do it again. 02:26.000 --> 02:31.000 Just express your needs and make friends. 02:31.000 --> 02:38.000 And we've succeeded if you go home this evening with at least one person from this devroom added to your matrix chat. 02:39.000 --> 02:42.000 Or on signal ideally. 02:42.000 --> 02:49.000 This year I believe has been a tremendous success for open source in the legislative arena. 02:49.000 --> 02:57.000 I believe that over the last year we have made there's been a fundamental change in the way that legislation works in Europe. 02:57.000 --> 03:03.000 In the CRA it became obvious during the mid of the year and come your first say it wrong. 03:03.000 --> 03:14.000 It became obvious in the mid of the year that there were a lot of changes that would need to be made to the wording in the CRA to accommodate the way that open source community projects actually work. 03:14.000 --> 03:21.000 And so the European Commission introduced a new concept into the CRA with the concept of an open source software steered. 03:21.000 --> 03:30.000 And that means that for the first time legislation is now treating open source as a separate thing from manufactured goods. 03:30.000 --> 03:39.000 And that means that it's now possible for people who actually do care about open source to write legislation that does not accidentally harm us. 03:39.000 --> 03:44.000 But they can only do that if we help them understand what harm is or what doesn't. 03:44.000 --> 03:53.000 So that's the other reason this devroom is here today is to help those people work out how open source actually works on the ground. 03:54.000 --> 03:58.000 So that's the devroom today, make friends, fill up your signal address books. 03:58.000 --> 04:10.000 The day is structured as four workshops and the workshops are two hours long and it would be ideal if you were to stay for the full two hours rather than come and go for individual talks. 04:10.000 --> 04:15.000 If you don't feel you can do that, well we won't hate on you. 04:16.000 --> 04:20.000 But if it match anyway. 04:20.000 --> 04:26.000 Apart from that, that's all I've got to say because I think I'm running two panels and a fishbowl today. 04:26.000 --> 04:33.000 So I'll hand over to Jordan who is running the first block to do the thing that's first to happen at five past nine.
