At FOSS Backstage 2025

Two weeks ago, I went to the FOSS Backstage conference in Berlin. I have been to one before, and also presented virtually on it, but this was the first time with a full size talk on-site. Even though it was the first time I talked on this topic, it felt okay. And now the video of the talk Using the commons without causing a tragedy is published on their YouTube channel.

Here are the slides I used.

During lunch, they were still asking for lightning talks in the evening, and after a quick thought, I wrote a submission. It was selected, which led to an even quicker creation of slides for How to self-assess your codebase towards the Standard for Public Code.

All in all, the conference was well organized and the catering was lovely. I am looking forward to participate in and contribute to future editions of FOSS Backstage.
