Web server. Evar. DESCRIPTION:This talk introduces a brand new web server - Ultra. With a binary at just 51K it's small, fast, and encompasses an all-in-memory web server with an in-built NoSQL datastore, a data processing language, SSI, multiple configurations, and logging. If you want to learn basic networking programming, its source is small enough for you to learn from. The talk covers the basic architecture and approach in keeping a small footprint, and breaks down the source into easily understandable blocks.

It is the natural evolution of PHP. This talk will cover some of the problems with PHP, the benefits of a compiled and statically typed language and then introduce Hack and HHVM as a solution.Half way into the talk I will give a crash course in Hack and explain its perks and syntactic sugar. At the end I'll give some advice on how and where to get started testing Hack.

In effect, this shifts the burden of providing consistency to the application, and often results in complex and error-prone application logic.Just a few years ago, an intense effort by Google resulted in Spanner - a globally distributed, replicated datastore that puts transactions back where they belong: right into the heart of the database.
CockroachDB is a grass-roots effort to bring to the table the guarantees of Spanner (and more) in an open source scalable database that is easy to deploy and, despite the name, quite attractive to have around.

It was created in 2000 using the GTK+ graphical toolkit. It is available on different platforms, GNU/Linux, and the proprietary platforms MacOSX and Windows.
Willing to address the large number of tablet users and to enhance the user experience the choice was made in January 2014 to rewrite GCompris in Qt Quick.

In years of research we have developed and actually operated an open innovation platform for gathering requirements for prototypes in large international academic projects. The last version of the current product is available under http://requirements-bazaar.org . End-users can enter their requirements by providing short descriptions including user stories, screenshots and other images. The requirements can then be shared amongst its users. On the other side of the chain, developers may take up ideas and transfer the accepted requirements to an issue system like JIRA.
Over the last years it turned out that people want more lightweight and mobile-friendly tools; we found the old monolithic system to be very hard to maintain to add new features. Therefore we are currently redeveloping it from scratch integrating many ideas from our users and incorporating new research findings. We are further driven by a mobile-first approach to support a wide variety of devices. We additionally want to support various social features like sharing on social networks or blogs and allowing discussions and rating amongst end-users and developers.
At FOSDEM we would like to encourage open source developers in rethinking the way requirements are currently gathered from the crowd. How do we want to collect new software ideas or simply feature requests from our users. Will it really be through feedback forms in our apps’ “About” menu? Do our users really think in terms of issues like we developers do? How can gamification be used to reward actual end-users of software? We hope Requirements Bazaar can answer these questions and fill the gap!

But with the right measures a stable, reliable, push-enabled and battery friendly connection can be achieved. This talk will present the required techniques using Smack, an open source XMPP client library written in Java. One outstanding property of Smack is that it's a multi-runtime library, i.e. it is able to run on Java SE runtimes and on Android.

It is based on a new operational transformation-like approach that can be used in peer-to-peer settings on the Web, using standard communication protocols such as WebRTC or XMPP. Part of the shared editing projects family (e.g. ShareJs, OpenCoweb, etc.), Yjs currently implements support for text, XML and JSON and proved to be very fast and reliable.In this lightning talk we introduce the concepts and features of the Yjs framework and discuss how it can be leveraged to design the next generation of peer-to-peer shared editing tools. We conclude the talk with a short demo that highlights the capabilities of the framework.

With its second version itevolved into a fully expressive, yet space-wise efficient format that can beused outside of the D-Trace suite too. Compiling the FreeBSD kernel with theCDDL/CTF option triggers the creation of such CTF data that corresponds to therespective kernel objects. This dataset can be parsed and processed to become asource of information needed to pretty print all kernel data structures insidethe on-line kernel debugger DDB.

Lua has successful as a scripting language embedded into applications, especially in the gaming industry. However, its "no-batteries-included" design prevented it from getting traction as a stand-alone application language.LuaRocks was created to target this problem. This talk will discuss the particular challenges of developing a package manager for Lua. With this project, we've been successfully fostering an ecosystem of extension modules, improving reuse of Lua code.

During the past 10 years, we have seen the community growing but not the number of developers. The conclusions were clear. The price to pay to develop on OpenChange was too high: C language only, very complex, too much knowledge required, too much time before you get visible results. We have addressed all these obstacles and will teach you during this talk how to set up the development environment in no time, understand the basics of the OpenChange REST API and leverage its resources and samples to get first visible results in Outlook today.

We have years of experience writing email clients and servers, and we know where the pain points are. This protocol is in production right now, and a 30 second demo will show it in action.
At the moment the email world is divided. Every vendor is building their own proprietary JSON protocol, because IMAP+SMTP is a really poor fit for mobile apps and even the LEMONADE protocol changes haven't made the experience good enough.
We want to change that by offering a completely unencumbered standard which is good enough that companies don't need to build their own, and gain an interoperability layer which is better for everybody. Raise the baseline experience if you will. We believe it's possible to have a protocol which is both open AND good.

They will significantly reduce the amount of work needed, and reduce the amount of errors that can be made. My aim is to reduce the amount of work to be done before and after the meeting to just 5 minutes, even with the large amount of people that attend the event at FOSDEM (~100 people), without compromising security.
I also hope to considerably shorten the amount of time that a key signing party takes through future work.
The current tools are:
The tools automatically check fingerprints and use a file format that is easy to handle with standard tools like grep and awk.
These tools were made after my experience with key signing parties at FOSDEM and I hope other people will find them useful.

At the same time, all these devices have the closest thing to an universal virtual machine that has ever existed: the JavaScript virtual machined, paired to a (roughly) standard object model that allows anybody with a bit of programming prowess to create programs that can be run anywhere and everywhere.There is great potential for massive distributed computing in this environment, but the ability to tap it a bit farther than sending basic computations is not there yet. In this presentation we will talk about the issues involved in doing so, from basic algorithmic issues to twisted legal issues that can arise when you are using devices you don't own to perform unwitting computations.

The inability to make available resources for use in production in a timely and cost effective manner causes overruns across product and feature life-cycles. Automating discovery, provisioning and orchestration cuts down on delays. This talk presents Genesis, an open source ruby DSL developed at Tumblr. Genesis provides a DSL for resource discovery and is part of an open source stack from Tumblr, alongside Phil (Provisioning) and Collins (Orchestration).

Especially in the industry it is forbidden just to run yum update (on Linux) to update your Linux system, therefore, upgrade-ux may proof to be a handy tool to guide you through the patching and/or update process as it follows a track you control (evidence gathering, pre/post executing of scripts, logging, and so on).

Our goal is to give a slideshow (attached) that explains the basics around the history and evolution of the platform, a high-level explanation of the technical challenges and solutions to creating a decentralized marketplace, and then ask them to come visit our stand to give them a personal demonstration.
Please contact me at sam@openbazaar.org if you have any questions.

Medical imaging is indeed the first step to the treatment of more and more illnesses, such as cancers or cardiovascular diseases.
In turn, the data management of clinical images and the administration of the computer network of a medical imaging department imply continuously growing technological challenges. Tasks such as autorouting between imaging modalities, exchanging data between clinical departments or hospitals, or anonymizing images are still hard to achieve in practice. This is a direct consequence of the lack of interoperability software that could bring technological independence to hospitals by creating low-cost gateways between proprietary ecosystems.
In this talk, I will explain the pains behind modern medical imaging, from the perspective of the hospitals. The DICOM standard will be introduced, together with free and open-source software supporting this standard.
I will then put emphasis on the free software Orthanc, a lightweight, versatile DICOM server. Thanks to its REST API and to its Lua scripting engine, Orthanc is primarily conceived as a central, robust building block to bring technological independence to clinical departments by automating their very specific imaging flows. Orthanc was nominated at the Zénobe Award 2013 for social innovation.

Started at the Zürich University of the Arts (ZHdK) in order to manage their own sizeable pool of equipment, it quickly became clear that other organizations have exactly the same problems. It now made sense to release leihs under the GPL. In this talk, Ramón talks about mistakes made, challenges and things learned in the last 8 years of managing a free software project from within a government organization.

This python-based piece of code provides a list of classes that help to analyze open source communities. This talk is intended for those interested in open source analytics and want to have a better understanding of the community and processes around their favourite open source projects. The talk will use ipython notebook recipes to follow the code.

These systems tend to be ridiculously expensive for the features that they offer, since most vendors target the high-end market segment with customized solutions. ii. Configuring and maintaining the system has to be done by a certified installer, giving the customer little control over their own house. iii. Theses systems use closed-source communication protocols and you -as a user- are not able to interface with the system or change anything in the system.
OpenMotics is an open source home automation hardware and software system that offers features like switching lights and outputs, multi-zone heating and cooling, power measurements, and automated actions. The system encompases both open source software and hardware. For interoperability with other systems, the OpenMotics Gateway provides an API through which various actions can be executed. The project was open sourced 2 years ago and was started about 10 years. The choice to open source the project was very conscious: we want to offer a system where users are in full control over their home automation system.
