This talk will speak about the work we've done in order to relicense animportant part of the VLC framework from GPLv2+ to LGPLv2.1+It will detail the reasons behind that change, the history of thischange, and the important work and tasks accomplished to contact all developersin a no-copyright-assignment project in order to relicense to a morepermissive license. It will also speak of the usual legal issues we havewith VLC, notably on software patents and DRM breakage.

As Firefox OS is a perception-altering, market-changing project, we believe every element should be preception-altering, including the technology behind the way we localize it. L20n is paradigm-shattering, next generation localization technology which will only add to Firefox OS's ability to stand out as a truly innovative project. L20n allows localizers reach a higher level of free linguistic expression, unencumbered by an application's logic. Join us to see how l20n will change localization and how it adds to Firefox OS's mission to push the boundaries of what's possible in open source.

Many contributors to the templates repository find it to complicate to upload and publish a template on the site, because they had to create a project and then a release for every new template version. Only afterwards they could upload their template onto the site. It's currently not possible to translate the project pages (and sub pages) or e.g. the categories of the projects. Thus I started to work on a new add-on for a LibreOffice template center that has a more flat hierarchy and make it possible to translate the projects (and sub pages) as well as the categories of the projects into different languages. The presentation will show the current state of this Upgrade of the LibreOffice templates site.

DESCRIPTION:Governments on a local and European level work to create eGovernment services that are accessible to all citizens, independent from the operating system and applications they use. This means providing forms that are in an open format and that can be used with FOSS tools. Providing forms and documents in proprietary formats makes it difficult for FOSS users to make use of the full potential of the services that are offered online. The Free Software Client Reference System is a tool used to help local governments ensure that all the services that are provided to citizens are compatible with FOSS. The goal here is to ensure that every citizen does not need to own a proprietary system to access eGovernment services.

We'll explore:
Copyright assignment: Some high-profile GNU maintainers haverecently criticized the FSF's copyright assignment policy andsystem. What are these criticisms, what does the FSF intend to doabout them, and what's the point of its assignment process to beginwith?
GPL adoption: Last year here, in "Is copyleft being framed?", I putnumbers supposedly showing declining GPL adoption in perspective,showing problems with the data, questioning the conclusions drawnfrom the data, and presenting different data leading to the oppositeconclusions. We'll look at the questions that were raised since thenabout my data, and at some new data that's been made available, anddraw new conclusions.
App Stores: When Apple's App Store launched, the FSF concluded thatits terms were incompatible with the GPL -- and with any kind ofstrong copyleft. Since then, we have several new App Stores; mostnotably from Google and Microsoft. Are the Apple terms stillincompatible with the GPL? Are the other stores any better? Arethese stores undermining GPL adoption, and should copyleft relax itsstandards in order to get free software to this audience, or shouldit stand its ground?

Interfacing them and building complex applications is still hard, mainly due to proprietary hardware and communications protocols. Open source and community based solutions are the key to overcome the aforementioned limitations. To prove that Open Source is the solution we decided to upgrade various devices to smart-objects using open protocols and the concepts and directives of Future Internet.We will present all the levels of the architecture of our system to fit our greater vision of an Open Source Home automation System. We deal with low level Arduino-based smart adapters, communication protocols, the storage mechanism for logging and data aggregation and the high level applications (e.g., Android, Windows Phone) and interfaces to control and monitor our local hackerspace.All parts of our installation are open source and available for everyone to use and extend.Some of the technologies we used include CoAP for low level wireless communication, RESTful web interfaces and Semantic Descriptions to integrate them with the Web.

Web content is becoming more and more complex, while we still serve it on very low end devices such as mobile platforms where expectations are very high. Gecko's compositing system moved to an asynchronous architecture allowing us to keep some parts of the user experience perfectly smooth even when the the browser is busy processing web content such as JS. Among the elements that benefit from this: panning, zooming, CSS animations and transitions, video playback.This talk will give an overview of this asynchronous architecture, How it impacts user experience and what we want to achieve in this area in the future.

This allowsapplications to be resilient and scalable, but also allows the operationof the application to be fully automated.
Mark will discuss how OpenStack was designed from the ground up withthese same principles in mind and can be deployed in a highly resilientand fault tolerant manner. Mark will go on to explain how you should aimto build on OpenStack's architecture so that operating an OpenStackcloud is as automated as operating a modern cloud based application.

To propel Asterisk further into the future, a new SIP module is being developed which focuses on building a sustainable SIP implementation for the next 10 years. This talk will focus on explaining the new approaches that will be taken with this module, how it can be expanded and maintained, and how you too can help bring new SIP grounds to the Asterisk community!

This unfortunate catch-22 is something that GNU/Linux users with disabilities have had to struggle with for years, because using the accessibility features of their environment required first enabling accessibility support for that environment -- or find someone to do so for them. And yet there was nothing these users could do to change this situation because enabling accessibility support by default would result in instability and performance degradation for all users.
GNOME has long felt that this was a condition which could not continue, and slowly but surely began identifying and tackling these issues. In 2012, things had improved to the point that the developer community felt confident that enabling accessibility support by default was something worth attempting. The end result: GNOME 3.6 was the first GNU/Linux graphical desktop environment to be released with no ""enable accessibility"" setting. For our users, accessibility is always on.

CloudStack is a IaaS solution enabling users to build public or private clouds. We will briefly review the "Apache Way" that governs the CloudStack project and present the ecosystem that is taking shape. We will then dive into the key features of CloudStack: Hypervisor agnosticity, multiple storage backends like Ceph, GlusterFS, Software Defined Networking and couple other interesting ones. We will then present three extremely useful utilities to test and manage a CloudStack base cloud. Namely: DevCloud, a sandbox that provides an all-in-one environment to develop and test CloudStack code, Marvin, a Python framework for integration testing which also provides a Python binding to the CloudStack API and finally we will present CloudMonkey the new command line interface built on Marvin.

It began as a layer of abstraction to ease the use of various kv-stores, but incredible properties fell out of the abstraction:(1) one can seamlessly swap storage architectures without changing application code. (2) ANY storage system can be plugged into your application (e.g. git). (3) caching, sharding, version control, and other complicated access patterns are implemented entirely as modules, not application code!

Recently the Jetpack team has been focusing its efforts on integrating the Add-on SDK APIs into Firefox. This has benefits for both Firefox and add-on developers:- Add-on developers using the SDK will no longer need to re-pack their add-ons to benefit from bug fixes, as the SDK APIs will be included in Firefox builds.- The Add-on SDK APIs will become available for all add-on developers, without the need to use the SDK's packaging infrastructure.- New Firefox features can be implemented using de-facto standard CommonJS modules, allowing for modular, re-usable and easily testable code- CommonJS module format enables use of many modules available in node's npm (Over 15300 packages have already being published on https://npmjs.org/)
Also learn about how some teams at Mozilla already use Jetpack APIs in Firefox core!

This JSR also provides a new Java package java.lang.invoke that exposes Virtual Machine internal mechanismsthrough a standardized API allowing dynamic language runtimes to be more efficient.
The current version of Dalvik, the virtual machine of Android, is compatible with the Java specification 6 thus doesn't provide the invokedynamic instruction.That's why most of the developers of dynamic languages that support Android provide two runtimes,one compatible with the JVMS 6 and an other compatible with the JVMS 7.
One goal of my thesis is to provide a full implementaion of the JSR 292 on Dalvik.But Android is a constrained environment that make most of the tricks used by the desktop/server VMslike Hotspot (Oracle JVM) and J9 (IBM JVM) either inefficient or harmful.
After an introduction explaining how invokedynamic works and how it is used to optimize dynamic languages.I will present some tricks used by Hotspot to implement invokedynamic,why some of them can not be used by Dalvik and I will finish with some ideas of implementations on Dalvik.

Storytelling is a perfect tool for FLOSS projects, because it creates a sense of ownership for members of the project - even for those less involved - and therefore helps in growing the community. The presentation will offer an overview of basic storytelling techniques, and their application to FLOSS projects.

Before licenceswere tested in court, enforcement was carried out in a quasi-legal wayand “bargaining in the shadow of the law” was the norm. Later, somecases came to court across a number of jurisdictions and a variety ofFLOSS licences have been upheld, albeit in lower courts. This does notreally set any legal precedent but it has brought a littlepredictability to the area. The debate about the legality of theselicences is still current, nonetheless and new licences are beingdrafted, despite a plethora already in existence. Seen in asocio-legal and historical context, such agreements emerge when thelaw does not provide for the type of arrangement envisaged but therecomes a point at which the legislature needs to respond to providelegal certainty which a licence or contract may not. This talkexplores two possible legal evolutions which would ensure the legalityof FLOSS licences: either the enactment of an international orregional convention along the lines of the Free Software Acthttp://www.law.ed.ac.uk/ahrc/script-ed/issue4/FS-Act.asp or else anagreement between licensor and licensee along private internationallaw principles (choice of law clauses) which can then be enshrined bythe courts.

Its large portfolio of applications for a wide spectrum of domains has lead to an equally wide spread spectrum of libraries for general functionality, platform integration and domain specific tasks. Qt application developers are often not aware of what is available or are uncertain what dependencies an interesting library might have. This talk will introduce two KDE initiatives to address those needs: Inqlude, a repository for Qt libraries, and KDE Frameworks 5, a reorganization of KDE's libraries into a modular structure with fewer, cleaner and better documented dependencies.

Muchdiscussion has been made over the years about JEOS, embedded Linux,custom distros, applicance building, etc, but not a lot of discussionabout how applications could be delivered such that they were morereadily able to co-habitate. In a related note, open sourceapplications (because distros are so "inclusive") are put throughsignificant scrutiny around their design and deployment related totheir integration with the core OS that may or may not make sense. Thescrutiny is certainly more intense than proprietary software isrequired to undergo.

It has however a long-term vaporware reputation. Development has indeed been relatively dormant for some time, but recent regain of interest has brought interesting improvements and stabilization, to the point that there will be a non-official release of the GNU/Hurd variant of Debian Wheezy, with about 75% of the Debian packages, including classical graphical desktop application (gnome, gnumeric, firefox, ...)

As a consequence, the flows of biomedical images inside the RT departments are at the same time numerous and complex. This has motivated the development of the Orthanc open-source software that is designed to improve such workflows. Orthanc is a free, Web-based DICOM store. Orthanc features rich scripting capabilities that makes it scalable and flexible: Thanks to its RESTful API, Orthanc can be driven from any computer language to automate the imaging workflows that are very specific to each hospital. Orthanc is deployed in our Institution to optimize several real-world clinical processes by improving the interconnection between various DICOM modalities and by simplifying the data management of medical images.

Application of those new language features enables new and significant library enhancements in JDK8. This talk will introduce the new language and major library enhancements.
The most significant library enhancement will be the introduction of a new collections API. Without lambda expressions and default methods such an API would not be feasible. This new collections API is designed to make it easier to process data compared to the external iteration approach as currently required using the existing Collections API. Further more, by internally using the Fork/Join framework added in JDK7 the new API provides an unobtrusive and simple way for the developer to leverage parallel execution and fully utilize modern multicore systems.
At the end of this talk developers should have a good understanding of the new features, know how to obtain the OpenJDK Lambda implementation, try out those features, and provide valuable feedback.

Moreover, advanced simulation techniquesenable us to simulate the growth of a cell on the metabolic level. Tograsp the topology of the metabolic network and to interpret thefluxes through its reactions a visualization of the simulation resultsis indispensable. However, traditional graph visualizations are unableto cope with the complexity of metabolic networks and often verycluttered graphs. In contrast, AMEBA reduces the number of nodesdisplayed while retaining as much information as possible byidentifying branch points in the metabolic network. Although thealgorithm does not rely on extrinsic information, it can be guidedadditionally by expert knowledge to produce camera-ready figures.Furthermore, the run-time of less than a second -- even for largemetabolic networks -- enables an interactive usage. This way, aresearcher can track the fate of compounds through the whole networkand thus is able to get the big picture. The development of AMEBA wastremendously facilitated by the availability of FLOSS. In fact, thefirst prototype was created within a week and subsequently refined toa stable analysis tool, which is now available under the terms of theGPL (http://metano.tu-bs.de/ameba). The talk will cover the details ofthe algorithm and will highlight the steps at which FLOSS was crucialfor the success of this piece of scientific software.

The battle for Wesnoth is in the rare position of being an open source game project featuring many different translations for its huge amount of content. Currently Wesnoth features 54 translations of which 15 translations of the stable series are more than 90% complete.
This session is about sharing the history behind this and factors which can help projects gain a stable internationalization community. The talk will focus on best practices which have shown themselves as working nicely for getting the translation community started as well as keeping translators happy. It might also show how the translation process is connected to the release cycle and what common problems for game translations are.

However, conventional frameworks for distributed graph processing, such as Pregel, use programming models that are well-suited for scalability but inconvenient for programming graph algorithms. In this talk, we demonstrate how to use Green-Marl, a Domain-Specific Language for graph analysis, to describe graph algorithms intuitively and extend its compiler to generate equivalent Pregel programs. Using the semantic information exposed by Green-Marl, the compiler applies the same kinds of transformation rules that programmers apply when manually implementing graph algorithms with Pregel. Our experiments show that the Pregel programs generated by Green-Marl compiler perform similarly to native Pregel implementations of the same algorithms. The compiler is even able to generate a Pregel implementation of a complicated graph algorithm whose native Pregel implementation is very challenging.

With the arrival of hardware extensions to help virtualization, the Xen community has started to develop a new kind of paravirtualized guest that make use of hardware extensions to provide better performance.
This new type of paravirtualized guest, called PVH, makes use of hardware-assisted pagetable virtualization to get rid of one of the most difficult parts to implement when porting a new Operating System to Xen, the paravirtualized MMU. This, apart from the obvious benefit of having a performance boost, also benefits Operating System that don't have a virtualization solution, with the aid of hardware extensions, the required code changes to port a new OS to Xen are reduced.

The talk starts with a generic introduction to Aldebaran and its flagship product, the humanoid robot NAO.
We then give a small demo of what the robot can do, and how you can program it, all with open source software.
Then we talk a little about the history of open source at Aldebaran: how it was first chosen as a tool;the decision to use linux; the way we went from openembedded to buildbot and gentoo; the way we went from CDash to Jenkins, and so on.
After this, we will discuss the current open source projects Aldebaran is contributing to (connman for instance) and the tools Aldebaran decided to open source (like qiBuild).

This talk will discuss the substance of the current copyleft-nextdraft, the nature of the drafting process, and the larger issue of whysuch a project is worthwhile. I will describe the rationale forsignificant features of the copyleft-next license text, including itsnotable departures from GPLv2 and GPLv3. I will also explain how andwhy the project has adopted some of the standard methodology of publicfree software project development, including the use of a public gitrepository and a publicly-archived mailing list, a major changefrom earlier free software-related legal drafting efforts. The projectis also noteworthy for its invention of the "Harvey Birdman Rule",which has two aims: to maximize transparency by discouragingundisclosed private negotiations over license drafting, and to limitthe undue influence of interest groups far removed from the concernsof individual free software developers and users.

eTests is a PHP/MySQL platform i developped during my PhD in science didactic at the University of Namur (http://webapps.fundp.ac.be/umdb/etests ) . It is used there since 3 years, and is now deployed at the Catholic University of Louvain (Louvain-la-Neuve and Wolluwe) (http://sites.uclouvain.be/etests ). This application offers opportunities to collaborative work on formatives as certificatives tests using multiple choices questions. It's not only a new quizz tool. It's a real university level research tool in education science, as it offers to teachers and reserchers tools to analyse answers in a global way and diagnose difficult topics and learning obstacles. As some PhD projects, I'm actualy alone to develop this platform. My goal in presenting it to FOSDEM is to find some interested developpers, at least to have technical as conceptual discussions about it, and with some chance, to find possibles teammates. The source code has been published on sourceforge under EUPL (European Union Public Licence version 1.1).

Nemo Mobile is one of these mobile oriented open source distributions. It is based on very flexible and mobile oriented Mer Core and has UI developed with Qt/QML. Nemo Mobile targets mobile devices such as phones and tablets and has currently adaptations for devices including n900, n950 and n9 as well as some x86 devices and virtual machine support. There are also many other devices out there that have already preliminary adaptations that can be worked with. The development is done fully in the open and we welcome every user and contributor.
Many ask what it takes to port Nemo Mobile/Mer to new hardware, answer to this question is approached in this presentation. During the presentation listener will get information about the parts where implementation for each adaptation is needed. For example graphics, phone, sensors and audio need some adaptation work to get the features working. Examples of packaging a kernel and graphics libraries are shown with the tools that make it easier to get all the features included.

DESCRIPTION:The MySQL RDBMS is traditionally tuned for OLTP workloads. OLAP (analytic) workloads have traditionally been sub-optimal. While it is true that Amazon EC2 and other cloud providers now provide large machines with SSD disks, these are still best for OLTP workloads.
The largest EC2 server is limited to 64GB. MySQL queries are single threaded. Perhaps spreading your data over eight 17.1GB servers might cost the same(or less) and perform significantly better. So, the question is, is one big server with lots of very fast storage the best option for analytic queries?
This talk will introduce Shard-Query which can spread data over manyservers but treat the set as one big server. Basic features will be discussed, but the focus is on performance, not how Shard-Query works.
The talk will compare the price/performance difference of OLAP queries on one ""Quadruple Extra Large High-IO"" server compared with eight ""Extra Large High Memory"" servers. While eight servers increase operational complexity, the performance improvement trade-off may very well be acceptable.
Shard-Query is an open source (bsd licensed) MPP query engine for MySQL:http://code.google.com/p/shard-query

Mass spectrometry is a rather recent field in biology (converse to other fields, like genetics, genomics). Therefore, awareness about Free Software is very low among mass spectrometrists. Only since the last few years are people starting to develop on Free Software systems (Ubuntu, for example). But the mentality still has to progress a bit, as for the moment people develop software and keeps that soft in their lab without thinking about packaging it for their platform. I want to develop a project similar to NeuroDebian, that would bring to the mass spectrometrists a Debian platform for developing software and building mass data analysis workflows all based on Free Software.
One other aspect of software in mass spectrometry is related to the fact that mass spec vendors are trying hard the MS strategy to lock-in users in black-box data formats. We need to force them to open the formats or at least to force them to write proper full-featured converters to open standard formats. Free software must be a way to force vendors to behave properly. There are thousands of terabytes ofbiological data at stake.

The main goal of the eGov Testing Machine, which is referred to as the Free Software Client Reference System is to implement an automatic testing tool using Free Software to test eGovernment services to ensure everything is working under GNU/Linux systems, from smart cards used for authentication to online services that can be accessed by FOSS browsers. This is to help the local government and potentially other governments in Europe to reach a 100% Open Standards compliance. An automated testing machine has been developed using tools such as Selenium and Sikuli that can perform tests online without user interaction. Online services are systematically tested and user reports are generated which can be viewed online to identify any potential problems. These test results can then be used to solve issues that may arise when using FOSS.

Our project has undergone various transformations, including becoming modular not just in terms of deployment but also from a source code perspective with the help of OSGi, a complete overhaul of the API for extending Thermostat, and an amazing visual makeover - attendees from last year may have trouble recognizing it on sight. Along the way we've also added new, compelling features such as detailed thread monitoring, heap dump and analysis, an Eclipse plugin interface, and more functionality available from the command line. Of course, we also had a lot of fun doing it.
In our talk, we will describe the current state of Thermostat, give a demo of what you can do out of the box, and build a toy plugin on the spot so that attendees can see how easy it is to add custom instrumentation.

DESCRIPTION:While gaffer (https://gaffer.readthedocs.org/) started as a set ofPython modules and tools to easily maintain and interact with yourprocesses, it is slowly becoming a solution to deploy, supervise andmonitor processes and applications in a decentralized fashion withoutSPOF (Single Point Of Failure). Gaffer is already used in productionbehind some services.
The talk will present how to build such tool in Python using pyuv,tornado and other python libraries. How to make it scalable due to asimple design and what we did to make it compatible with Python 2 andPython 3.x .

Whether it is used as a simpledata store for a web shop, as an online backup tool or even as a meanto extract reports without impacting the master, it is always regardedas a very simple to setup and intuitive solution.
Coupled together with emergent tools and technologies, such as MySQLutilities, MySQL proxy or even the binary log API, it opens a widerange of possibilities for building complex and very useful solutions,yet in a very simple way. For example, aggregating data from multipledata centers, migrating data from/into MySQL servers and otherdatabases, using esoteric slaves as external full-text search enginesor even bridging into non-traditional and/or non-relational externalcomponents to handle special requirements, these are all possibilitiesthat one can think of. Furthermore, MySQL 5.6 Replication shows up asan enabler for many of these settings.
This session will showcase some advanced architectures combining MySQL5.6 Replication and other tools."

Partially due to strictprinciples that most Linux distributions adhere to, partially due to Javaecosystem encouraging behavior which goes against these principles, but mostlydue to ineffective tooling on both sides of the fence.
Over past 2 years, tooling and guidelines for packaging Java have changed inFedora Linux considerably. What used to be a 1000 line build script can soonbecome 100 lines of mostly metadata. But all of that relies on sane build systemwith predictable behavior on Java side: Maven.
During the course of the talk we will clean up one such build script anddescribe how each change was made possible. Most importantly we hope to convincethe audience that for common good, using Maven for Java development even withall its quirks is better than the alternatives. A wider discussion on other Javabuild systems would also be welcome.

This is creating significant challenges in scientific research as the amount of data produced increases, previous analysis techniques become less useful. Worse still, if common formats cannot be agreed upon getting the output of one code into a suitable analysis tool can be difficult. This is where open source tools present a strong alternative to traditional softwaremodels.
This talk introduces some of the open source technology developed in the Open Chemistry project at Kitware. Recent advances in open source scientific visualization will be discussed, going from smaller chemical data sets such as those that can be analyzed by Avogadro, through to advanced visualization techniques available in the Visualization Toolkit, ParaView and Avogadro 2. The talk will also discuss MoleQueue, a tool for desktop high-performance computing integration, and MongoChem, a tool for desktop cheminformatics. The Open Chemistry applications integrate with one another using an open JSON-RPC based communication channel.

It is the art of wrapping game mechanics like badges and levels and leader boards around stuff that isn't a game, harnessing people's natural affinity for fun competition into engagement. Services like Nike+ have proven that gamifying health and exercise behaviors can create strong incentives, make a healthy lifestyle more fun, and improve players' well-being. So, can gamification work for developers and their engagement with FLOSS? Can projects encourage contributor participation with achievements, comparisons, and incentives? Or does even friendly competition sour the cooperative ethos of FLOSS communities? Do developers really want to keep score and track their achievements? This interactive talk will present a few case studies of how gamifying FLOSS participation might work to get ideas going.

This session will examine the legal and business justifications forsuch practices. What good is complete and corresponding source(freedom 1) in a sandboxed environment if you are essentially denieduse of it outside of a proprietary cloud service (freedoms 0, 2 and3)? Are these restrictions enforceable? What steps can FOSS developerstake to prevent their projects from being subverted by cloudproviders?

This talk details typical changes that applications need to build and run on Aarch64. Aarch64 leaves behind many of the idiosyncrasies of 32-Bit ARM for a new clean start, thus making porting easier in many cases. GCC and Autoconf provide tools to make code adapt using the "detect feature, not platform" philosophy. In this talk we dive into both Aarch64 specific changes needed and general portability tips. Many of instructions provided should be helpful for porting GNU/Linux applications to any new architecture.

Composer, Packagist, PHPspec, and PSR are just a first step in the right direction. Each of us can do their part - you could, and you should also be a part of it.

We enable our customers to conduct fourth generation satisfaction research and continually analyze and publish the results. To do so we use a system that has been fully developed in house; it is tailor made to fit our customer’s and our needs.The system consists approx. 50 different databases spread out over multiple MySQL servers all tied together by one Perl application. The application is a web application. It and its connected websites and processes run on a classical LAMP stack of which the ""P"" is exclusively Perl.
The talk will focus on some Perl features that save us a lot of time and some of it idiosyncrasies that we have learned to deal with. Our main challenges in development and operations lie in the collection of questionnaire data from several sources, safeguarding the integrity of the collected data and the results and of course providing an adequate user experience through all this. The talk will focus on these aspects."

However, the desire for cloud agnosticism becomes increasinglychallenging when we start thinking about managing images. Not only dowe have API differences, but also many cloud vendors require differingformats and importation methods, some requiring uploading of pre-builtimages, others snapshots of running instances.
This talk addresses some of the issues surrounding image management in afederated cloud environment and introduces Aeolus Image Factory; aproject that offers image management abstraction for multitude of Cloudvendors. Aeolus Image Factory allows users to define images at a highlevel and have them built, pushed and registered with all the majorcloud vendors.

Since it only supports one pipeline, the replication service is an all-or-nothing matter.Using Tungsten Replicator, instead, not only you can define topologies with multiple masters easily, but you can also set filters and conditions for each pipeline.With asynchronous replication, conflict resolution is hard to implement. But what you can do is conflict PREVENTION. If you want to define a system of records (each source is authorized to modify some of the data) in your multi-master topology, Tungsten offers you tools to achieve your goal easily.This talk will show how you can define which sources can update each schema, and how Tungsten enforces the rules, according to your needs.Demos are done using star and fan-in topologies.

"Big science" has evolved into "big data", which necessarily entails "big measurement". In science the problem is amplified by the experimental nature of measurements; the user often does not know a priori what region ofparameter space is of interest. Instrumentation which offers immediate feedback may be ill-suited to repetitive, automated measurements.
Mezurit 2 [2] is cross-platform Free Software (GPL) designed to make the setup and operation of experiments common in nanoscience and low-temperature physics quick and easy, while providing mechanisms for complex automation. In a typical scenario, the user begins by defining several virtual channels, each corresponding to a physical quantity present in the device under test, as functions of available input and outputs provided by DAQ boards and GPIB-connected external hardware. Then, the user can control several virtual instruments which provide mechanisms to view and record data, sweep outputs, and configure event triggers. After working out the optimal procedure, the user can then automate everything using the comprehensive Python-based scripting interface.

Security should be considered throughout the development process, but testing for security vulnerabilities (penetration testing) is a key part of secure software development. This is a particular challenge for open source projects as most developers have limited security experience and often don’t have the funds to pay for external expertise.
This talk introduces the OWASP Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP), an integrated penetration testing tool for finding vulnerabilities in web applications. It is completely free, open source and cross platform, as well as being a community orientated project that actively encourages participation. While ZAP is used by security professionals, it is also ideal for anyone new to web application security and includes features specifically aimed at developers. ZAP can be run interactively, but it also supports a REST API, making it ideal for including in a continuous integration environment.
Simon will show how ZAP can be used to find vulnerabilities, both manually and as part of an automated build.He will also give an overview of some of the more advanced features, and explain how they can be used for more complex security testing.

Its modularity make easy the process of creating and evaluating concepts in a short space of time and with reduced costs. In this talk we are going to illustrate a development flow divided into three steps: the modular design, the prototype and the final product. The modular design intends to validate the main features of the product being developed, while the prototype has the goal of evaluating its performance. The two first steps allow us to validate the proposed product with reduced costs and reduceddevelopment time, as well as it helps reduce the need of making changes in the final product project in a later stage. To illustrate this process, we are going to go through the development of a GPS tracker with GSM communication made on top of open-source software and hardware.

Do you feel a sense of frustration every time someone asks to call you with Skype? Does the excruciating inefficiency of maintaining multiple profiles across Facebook, Google+ and LinkedIn give you more pain than the sound of fingernails scratching a blackboard? Have you tried free and open source alternatives, but found their usefulness limited (or completelyfailed to get them working)? Would you like to see a way out of this nightmare?
This talk covers the depth and breadth of VoIP and all other real-time communications, encompassing desktop VoIP, instant messaging, social networking, microblogging, server solutions andalso emerging areas like WebRTC, Peer-to-peer, privacy with FreedomBox and the mobile VoIP sector.
Despite this broad agenda, the presentations from each speaker have been tightly coordinated with a coherent focus on the challenges of making it all work together comprehensively and conveniently. The speakers have come together for FOSDEM with the goal of mapping out a strategy for free and open communications standards to finally take their rightful place as the dominant paradigm.
The speakers are the leaders in the flagship open source VoIP projects and will participate in a panel discussion and question/answer session in the telephony devroom immediately after the talk.

Much of the discussion of the support has focussed on the compiler, but both C and C++ have a large standard library. The C standard library is a core part of any UNIX system - the public system call interface is specified in terms of functions in this library - and so the task of bringing this support to users falls to a mixture of libc, the compiler, and a few other supporting pieces of code.

Or in short: Flow brings back the joy of development in PHP.
This session introduces some of the main features of TYPO3 Flow 2.0 and gives you an idea about how it relates to the well established frameworks on the market.

The change of scale from 32 to 64 bit implies a broadening ofARM's target market from (mostly) embedded devices to address therequirements of high end consumer devices and servers. The 64 bit mode(AArch64) programming model is significantly different from the existing32 bit model. If ARM's change of direction does indeed grab asignificant share of this market then there are two correspondingimplications for the Free Java community. We need a high quality freeJava implementation to ensure that the market is not colonised solely bycommercial Java vendors. We need to provide this implementation fromscratch rather than try to modify existing 32 bit Java implementations.Red Hat has decided to port OpenJDK to AArch64 precisely to meet theseimplications head on.
This talk will describe the significant progress we have made in portingOpenJDK to AArch64 since the project began in earnest in July 2012, eventhough real hardware is not yet available and will not be for manymonths to come.
During the talk we will:
outline our plan for converting the runtime JIT components of OpenJDKto generate AArch64 code -- the (generated AArch64 code) templateinterpreter and the C1/C2 JIT compilers
explain how we have already managed to execute and debug generated ARMcode using our own ARMv8 functional simulator integrated into an x86 JVM
display execution of a Java program using the template interpreterrunning on our simulator
show both ARM instruction-level and Java bytecode-level stepping anddebugging of generated code within gdb

It is commonly understood that software patents are not granted in Europe, and that inventions in the form of software programs are not patentable. Both assumptions are not completely true, and can be especially misleading for the development of mobile and embedded appliances. The presentation will inform about the special case of innovations made up of a combination of software and hardware inventions, and the can of worms this opens for embedded and mobile developers. It will introduce defensive strategies available to Open Source embedded and mobile developers, especially the creation of defensive publications and the Open Source patent pool built by the Open Invention Network.

For instance, a study can try to assess the impact of smoking behavior with respect to getting lung cancer in a group of 40-year old construction workers who also have been exposed to asbestos. As retrospective case studies are historical in nature, researchers require accurate representations of patient records over time in order to correctly assess the importance of particular time-dependent patient characteristics.
During this presentation, we will show how state-of-the-art Graph Databases can be extended with a set of temporal primitives that effectively aid researchers at gathering the required insights from a set of longitudinal medical records. Graph Databases are the ideal platform to model and store the multi-dimensional data points of the individual patient records and the cohorts to which they are belonging. By introducing a temporal notion within Graph Databases, physicians are given the power to query beyond time boundaries and get historical access to individual patient characteristics or combinations thereof. Patterns for individual patients can be compared and evaluated against the patterns for the cohort.
In order to validate our proposed approach, we have implemented FluxGraph, a proof-of-concept Temporal Graph Database. Being Blueprints-compatible, it should be straightforward to integrate the proposed API changes within mature Graph Database products. The explicit notion of time, combined with the flexible modelling offered by Graph Databases, provides users with an expressive and powerful data store and analysis platform which is difficult or even impossible to implement with traditional relational database technologies.

This results in an incredible applicability of the library,especially in non-standard environments. For example, odeint supports matrixtypes, arbitrary precision arithmetics and can even be easily run on GPUs. Inthis talk, I will give a short introduction to the library including a numberof examples.

They both offer similar features even though their development started quite differently. They both coexist and the interoperability between the two is key in order to offer a communications solutions which covers a broader number of users.
Throughout the course of time several gateways have been built to convert SIP to XMPP (and the other way around) but never in a fully transparent way. SylkServer implements a transparent gateway for SIP and XMPP. It's Open Source and during the talk I'll comment on its design, what advantages it has and what problems had to be solved.

Namely, signals spread by vehicles passing on the roadway are revealed by the battery powered boxes installed on the roadside.
The entire system is proudly powered by only free and open source softwares, at the probe side upon a healthy OS level orchestrated by the Debian OS runs the bluetooth inquiring tool while at the server side the traces are gathered and analyzed by a python back-end developed with the web2py web framework.
Given the growing and serious issue as the traffic jam and the continued reduction of the budget that municipalities have to deal with a sane and open source system for monitoring the traffic trends could be a starting point not only for cutting the expenditure down but also to develop an homogeneous monitoring infrastructure.

One year ago, we declared our goal to bring the framework to a level where its developers can use it as day-to-day OS. The talk will briefly introduce the fundamental ideas behind Genode's architecture followed by the presentation of the corner-stone for pursuing our goal to run GNU on Genode, namely the Noux runtime environment. Growing up is not easy. Hence, the second part of the presentation will be an experience report on the challenges we encountered at various levels of the software stack and the ways of how we overcame them.

To make such mods portable across CPUs and operating systems Quake 3 allows to compile regular C code to a Quake3 specific byte code. The byte code is then translated to native instructions by the game when loading the mod to achieve near native performance. This talk explains how the virtual machine works and how it's possible that Quake 3 supports both native shared objects as well as byte code VM's.

During the year 2012, the project has proven its worth, surviving turbulent changes and releasing several Qt 4.8 patch releases and the 5.0 major release. It has managed to do that through the dedication of its community and through the structure established last year, which may be unfamiliar to many customers of Qt.
This session will present the set up of the Qt Project, showing how a developer can approach the community with ideas and contributions. It will show how the project is set up and how the development and release processes work. Finally, it will present some success stories of how an Open Source project can have commercial interests in harmony.

DESCRIPTION:Most open source projects have chosen to build versions of their codefor a variety of platforms. This helps the advance of softwarefreedom, since people are frequently exposed to the reality for thefirst time when they try open source software on a platform where it'sotherwise absent.
But in the case of platforms gated by app stores, the common wisdomappears to be to disrupt access to open source software by exercisingthe copyright holders' right to object to conflicts with the licensethey have used.
Is this the right approach? Should we be waiving our objections to appstore terms so that software freedom is promoted on them? Or is itvital to object on principle in every case?
This "talk" will be introductory comments from Simon Phipps and AmandaBrock followed by an open discussion.

The Gecko profiler empowers users and allows them to either give important profiling data to developers, or track the root cause of their performance problems themselves.Other times, Firefox is not entirely to blame, and scripts on some web sites are just too slow. The Gecko profiler also allows to profile content performance.This session will introduce the Gecko profiler, how to use it in different scenarios, and how to use it to get useful data from your desktop browser or even Firefox for Android.

This concluded an open competition that was remarkable both for its magnitude and the involvement of the cryptographic community. Public review is of paramount importance to increase the confidence in the new standard and to favor its quick adoption. The SHA-3 competition explicitly took this into account by giving open access to the candidate algorithms and everyone in the cryptographic community could try to break them, compare their performance, or simply give comments.
In this talk the authors of Keccak will introduce and highlight the strengths of their cryptographic primitive and explain how it can benefit to the FOSS community.
Although Keccak, as the SHA-3 standard, will coexist with the current standard SHA-2 hash function family, it is much more than just another "SHAxSUM" algorithm. Keccak relies at its core on a new construction, called the sponge construction, which allows for simpler and more flexible modes of use. The talk will illustrate this by giving various examples on how current software designs can benefit from this greater flexibility, e.g., for all the flavors of hashing, stream encryption, authentication, authenticated encryption and pseudo-random bit generation.
This talk will also focus on the different aspects that make the design of Keccak open, from the open source implementations on various platforms to initiatives to keep encouraging third-party cryptanalysis, such as the KeccakTools cryptanalysis software and the Crunchy Crypto Collision and Pre-image Contest.

However, unlike mathematical formulas, which can be written and read by anyone with enough knowledge in the field, software can be hidden behind black boxes and proprietary walls. A March 2012 article in Nature found that more than 90% of papers published in science journals describing "landmark" breakthroughs in preclinical cancer research, are not reproducible, and are thus just plain wrong.

Then, there is a proposal for a best practice: show the big picture and involve a few people that understand the project and believe in it, asking feedback; create a physical/virtual place where it is easy to "get the facts" and "get the knowledge"; tell users criteria to discuss and improve knowledge and facts; propose few channels and ask for agreement; propose referrers and let them be judged by community; define how a user can become a referrer; make efforts to give referrers role to users who demonstrate results (provide facts) in interest of the community and the project.

At one point, the number of tests overwhelm the number of servers to run those tests, developer feedback becomes slower and bugs can sneak in. To solve this problem, we built parallelization into our Jenkins build pipeline, so we only need to add servers to keep overall test time down. In this talk, I'll cover how we did it and what came out of it in terms of pros and cons.

A small website running MediaWiki can happily fit on a single server, but the same software running at the Wikipedia scale is much more demanding. You need to deal with multiple database servers, webservers, load balancers, failover, networking configuration, IP address assignment and more.
The Heat project allows you to describe all the resources and their relationships in a single template, launch everything with one command and keep it up. You can easily combine the workflow with existing configuration management tools such as Puppet or Chef.
Initially modeled after Amazon CloudFormation, Heat is a free and open source component for OpenStack and has recently been accepted into OpenStack incubation.
This session will provide an overview of Heat's capabilities and how to use them, followed by a live demonstration. At the end you will understand Heat well enough to decide whether it is useful in your environment and how to get started with it.

DESCRIPTION:One major problem that is hard to fix with the current core data structures of Writer is anything that relates to tracking of changes - undo and change-tracking (redlining) itself. It is because the data structures use naive approach to the document - there is one array of 'nodes' (BigPtrArray), and additional data structures that take care of the changes. There are editors that use different data structure, so called "piece table", that has the advantage that it contains the change tracking information in the data structure itself, so it is trivial to traverse the changes. But, it is unusable for us because it would mean a complete Writer core rewrite. But - is there a possibility to upgrade/rewrite BigPtrArray so that it would contain the change tracking information in itself in a git-like fashion? ;-) That would allow us to do the changes incrementally - first upgrade the BigPtrArray without affecting the current functionality, and then do the rest.

A few months ago I picked up the projectand fixed the outstanding issues (related to changes in Hotspot and LLVM)and started implementing a couple of significant improvements.
This talk will give a short summary about what Zero and Shark actuallyare, how they work, why they are relevant (even in the face of upcomingfull ports for PowerPC and others), how it fits in the OpenJDKecosystem, and then describe some of the more interesting details aboutwhat I did, in particular improved support for atomic operations, JSR292/invokedynamic, interesting optimizations in both the compiler andthe interpreter and more. Hopefully I will be able to present someinteresting ports to other platforms like ARM or PowerPC, somebenchmarks results as well as results from testsuites (TCK?). Finally,I'll give an outlook to the future, things that need to be done, openimprovements, optimizations, etc.

Flex-It performs both approximate matching and relaxation of the user’s query, and ranks the answers according to how closely they match the original query. This is of especial relevance in areas where there are large volumes of complex, heterogeneous data with ever-evolving schemas; these include bioinformatics (and other scientific disciplines), financial information and social networks, among others.

The most common example would be a government or municipality officeseeking to renew their Microsoft licences, and therefore release acall for tenders for Microsoft licenses, effectively restrictingtenderers to Microsoft resellers, discriminating any other operatingsystem vendors.
Publishing calls for tenders that restrict the offering to a specificbrand or product is illegal in all of the EU countries. With theseactions FSFE seeks to develop an EU-wide procurement monitoringeffort, that will eventually lead to free competition, and as FreeSoftware is superior in most cases, it will lead to significantincrease in Free Software usage in the public sector.
In this talk the team coordinator Otto Kekäläinen will tell about theefforts motivations, the latest news about how the effort is going onand what impact it has had. PR about the effort:http://fsfe.org/news/2012/news-20120619-01

Some believe that trademarksand the enforcement of trademark rights are inconsistent with FLOSSprinciples. But some amount of control over when and how a projectname can be used is necessary for the name to remain meaningful as aan identifier of a specific software program with known attributes andqualities. That's the role of trademark law.
Balancing how we would like to be able to use FLOSS trademarks withcurrently existing trademark law is challenging. Trademarks arefundamentally different from copyrights, so the licensing conceptsthat work for copyright don't work for the name. Complicating mattersfurther, current trademark jurisprudence generally contemplates thattrademark owners are formalized legal entities in hierarchicalstructure, so the law is ill-suited for a world of collectivedecisionmaking by non-employees in a dynamic organizational structure.
But it still can come together in a way that serves the goals of freesoftware and meets the requirements of trademark law. I will explorewith the participants what the appropriate role of trademarks in FLOSSis and talk about ways that software projects can manage the use oftheir trademarks with some degree of freedom while still maintainingthe validity of the trademark, with a view towards shaping the law sothat it is better-suited for handling FLOSS concerns.

It is developed by a community including companies (Alixen, Bull, Dashing Soft, Nexedi, ViFiB, ZP Web Sites) and academia (Telecom ParisTech, University of Paris XIII)
The SlapOS model is based on standard Unix process/user separation. SlapOS can thus implement a wider range of Cloud models: virtual machine models, IaaS models, containers, instances, bare-metal PaaS among others. Nodes can be distributed geographically among different data centers and companies, or even into people's homes (self hosting). Software can also be deployed on more than 42 public clouds, even to create a Cloud federation where each infrastructure can back up another one. Billing is built into SlapOS through ERP5, the open source ERP, which acts as a process orchestrator and gives full independence. Other building blocks are Buildout to manage applications and supervisord for the monitoring. Documentation, forum and code repositories are available at community.slapos.org.
Mioga, the collaborative Extranet by Alixen, permits document sharing within inter- and intra-organisational workgroups through a fine-grained permission system. It complements an existing messaging system by providing groupware services: workgroup management, directory service integration, WebDAV or web-based document access, meta-data search, calendars, and many others. The source code (GPL) is available at www.alixen.org.
We introduce the main SlapOS concepts through simple examples using the command line: adding a node and requesting deployment of simple services like a database or a virtual machine in different regions of the world; then transforming our own computers, phones or some EC2 virtual machine into a SlapOS server and requesting deployment of ten LAMP applications inside of it.
We take Mioga as an example for how to port an existing, complex web application to the SlapOS cloud, be it for a SaaS offer or for internal usage (load-balancing and better use of spare servers). We can show code examples from all steps: from the Buildout "recipes" for components like PostgreSQL or Perl modules to the Slaprunner integration interface and recipes for both software and instance deployment. Administrative tasks such as supervision and backups can be fully automatised and integrated into the deployment recipes.
The SlapOS community would like to spread awareness and encourage participation. We conclude with an outlook of further work on security and robustness, welcoming questions and input of all kind.

For distributions, it is a challenge to deal with a huge collection of software packages, both internally and externally developed, employing many different development procedures.
This talk looks at best practices which emerged for vulnerability tracking. Tracking already reported vulnerabilities is only one aspect, however. We discuss tool-chain based hardening features (which can sometimes turn vulnerabilities exploitable for code execution into mere crashers), some remaining low-hanging fruits in this area, and more radical approaches for avoiding low-level vulnerabilities related to memory safety. Some of the APIs we provide are difficult to use, and we look at ways to detect API misuse statically, across an entire distribution.

Ideas DESCRIPTION:This talk aims to present current ideas about enabling the Java developer community to directly participate in the evolution of their favourite programming language.
First, we briefly introduce 4 controversial Java features as seen by the research community: 1) Generics 2) Arrays 3) Wildcards 4) Overloading. We describe their intended purpose as seen by the language designers. Next, we describe what programmers actually do with them by looking at recent empirical studies.
Second, we present a new platform (Wiggle) developed at the University of Cambridge that intends to democratise studies of language features in Java. We describe the technical architecture of the platform, the research and design decisions behind it. The audience will learn about Java source code query languages, graph databases and interesting recent development in the Java compiler. In addition, we will demonstrate a prototype in live.
Finally, we present a recent idea about classifying Java language features based on different dimensions such as typical applications and conceptual complexity. We describe how such a classification could be useful both for collaborative development, software comprehension and teaching.

However, turning the signals recorded by the telescope's antennae into astronomically relevant images is highly computationally intensive, and requires the development of a fast, flexible, scalable streaming data processing pipeline. I will describe the design of this pipeline, explaining how we use open source software to address some of the challenges we face and push forward our understanding of the Universe.

Also, even though there are umpteen thumb rules about this on the Internet and inbooks, often one notices/faces memory overrun or worse, an OOM;when even common recipes like vm.swappiness don't seem to help.
The root to understanding this lies in discovering where and how
MySQL allocates the memory, the static (buffer pool, adaptivehash index) and the variable (malloc/heaps/innodb data dictionary) components.
Correlation between mysql variables (max_connections, buffers akathe 'bufferbloat' etc.) will also be addressed. The talk willalso delve over possible solutions like using memory cgroups,avoiding OOMs with/without them and memory ballooning(virtualization). Lastly, a quick discussion on features planned and/or one would like to see, will be done."

One of its key science goals is to detect and, where appropriate, respond to transient astronomical phenomena – such as supernovae and gamma ray bursts – as they happen. However, identifying these transientsin the multi-terabyte LOFAR data stream is complex, and making the results easily accessible to astronomers is hard. I will describe the automatic transient identification systems we have put in place, and particularly emphasize how we use the high-performance, open-source MonetDB database system to make this possible.

It's particularly hard to convince developers that focusing on community health even matters without quantitative evidence proving its importance. The huge problems that occur if you fail to deal with issues quickly are nearly unbelievable, but over the past 10 years we've gradually begun to realize the need to think about the people involved in FLOSS projects and not just their output, whether its code, docs, or something else. The most important part of metrics is context -- you need to compare them to something, whether it's historical trends or other open-source projects. Furthermore, by understanding the qualities of data, including statistically expected variation versus unusual outliers, you can gain a true understanding of, and even predict, community health and growth.

DESCRIPTION:Having left the unsupportable "Java is Dead" narratives in the rear view mirror, the important question facing Java today isn't how popular it is: Java remains quite popular. Both the qualitative and quantitative evidence suggests that while Java has likely peaked from an overall popularity perspective, it remains an immensely robust, respected platform for building technology for businesses and consumers alike.
Of greater concern for Java advocates, instead, should be how to ensure Java's continued growth, even in the face of an ever more competitive landscape. With even enterprise buyers sanctioning - tacitly or otherwise - the usage of runtimes like JavaScript, Python and Ruby the role of Java moving forward is an open question.
Just because Java's not going away doesn't mean it's getting ahead. What can Java learn, then, from newly emerging competitive platforms? What are the drivers and characteristics behind the growth of these platforms and what, if anything, can Java learn from that?
To address this, I'll present a series of lessons, backed by quantitative data, that Java may want to take away to guarantee its momentum moving forward.

So let me add another one: it is incredibly easy toset up an almost free volunteer computing infrastructure which you can thenuse for crowdsourced experiments. In fact, SETI@home, the quintessentiallycrowdsourcing environment, has been released as the libre BOINC platform;but nowadays, with just a few lines of code and a plain vanilla server, youcan create your own volunteer (or not-so) computing environment. In thistalk we will explain how to set up a browser-based volunteer computingplatform using NoSQL servers and what are the advantages of doing so(including a boost to your H number).

When community minded folk talk about scale, they’re focused on the human and legal infrastructure required to take a project from a small team of 3-4 people to a project serving the needs of tens of developers and hundreds of users. While our toolchains scale well in terms of development, an entirely different infrastructure is required for care and feeding additional participants in your project.

Since such models are usually non-linear and impossible to solve analytically, their analysis is often carried out by simulation on high performance computing environments. Cluster, grid and cloud computing are nowadays adopted, but their use still requires specific technical and methodological skills. That is why high performance computing is not yet part of the daily practices in numerous communities where it would be needed.OpenMOLE (Open MOdeL Experiment: www.openmole.org) is a FOSS framework that implements a solution to this problem. It emphasizes on the easy integration of home-brewed models and on transparent scaling from a single computer up to a grid execution. It makes it possible for the modellers to build workflows for experimenting on their simulation model.OpenMOLE is based on a blackbox approach to embbed models based on very different technologies: java / scala / C / C++ / fortran / scilab / octave / netlogo... Once the user model is embedded in the platform, it can be executed according to various design of experiments, sensitivity analysis, calibration processes... OpenMOLE automatically distributes the numerous executions of the model on a distributed environment specified by the user, such as a cluster or even on the 100,000+ cores available on the European computing grid. The platform takes care of software installation, files transfert, job failures, rendering the distributed execution entierly transparent.

AGPLv3 has roots in the early 2000s, when some free software advocatescalled attention to what some described as an “Application ServiceProvider loophole” in GPLv2. One response was AGPLv1, a modificationof GPLv2 published by Affero, Inc. and drafted with Free SoftwareFoundation (FSF)'s help. AGPLv1 and contemporary licenses addressingthis policy issue saw limited adoption..
Many expected, and some strongly advocated for, FSF to incorporate theAffero clause into GPLv3. Instead, in 2007 the FSF drafted a separatelicense, AGPLv3, containing an additional requirement that modifiedversions of a program offer access to corresponding source to allusers interacting with AGPLv3'd programs through a network.
AGPLv3 has seen little adoption by individual free software developersand community projects for various reasons. Yet notable exceptionsexist, such as GNU MediaGoblin. Currently, AGPLv3's most common use isby businesses as a means of promoting purchases of proprietarysoftware licenses, a practice often criticized by some framers ofAGPLv3. Meanwhile, some corporate open source users have investigatedthe issue of AGPLv3 compliance. Awareness of AGPLv3 has steadilyincreased with the growing focus on “Cloud Computing”.
This panel, comprised of a few of the world's foremost experts onAGPLv3, seeks to discuss and explain all issues surrounding AGPLv3 andcontemplate the future of AGPLv3 as a viable copyleft license.

If a telescope is infrastructure forastronomy, then its equivalent or computational mathematics is asupercomputer. On the other hand, code produced to prove a theorem,simulate an explosion or study an image denoising algorithm is thesubject-matter of the science being investigated.
We need this work to be recognized and time and effort invested in itmust be rewarded by scholarship standards. On the other hand,when science is based on software foundations, the computational partof the research should be subject to validation by the scientificmethod. This implies that every program used in the elaboration of aresearch paper should, at least, be usable by referees, and ifpossible be publicly available is source form. Open Source software ispart of the equation, but it is not sufficient to answer the questionsraised here.

One such revolution, was the start of the Perl 6 development effort in 2000. In the meantime, after a period of impasse, Perl (5) continued evolving gradually. However, it now (2013) seems that the original Perl 1/2/3/4/5 code base has reached a level of jenga that makes it virtually impossible for anybody to make very much needed structural changes.This presentation will give an overview of how different projects are now attacking this problem.

Having good community data and metrics for your open source project is a great way to understand what works and what needs improvement over time, and metrics can also be a nice way to highlight contributions from key project members. This session will focus on tips and techniques for collecting and analyzing metrics from tools commonly used by open source projects. It's like people watching, but with data. The best thing about open source projects is that you have all of your community data in the public at your fingertips. You just need to know how to gather the data about your open source community so that you can hack it all together to get something interesting that you can really use.

Naxsi is a web application firewall for Nginx.It is somehow different from most WAF, as it does not rely on signatures, but rather on a scoring system, in combination with a learning system.
The goal, during this lightning talk, is to give an overview of naxsi, from both the conception & development aspect (nginx is a fantastic software to work on), and from a usage/feedback perspective.
