This devroom is not like others! It is to develop future EU policy, with the help of open source code!

We seek to stimulate a genuine and open discussion that will become the fuel for good legislation in the future. We are building workshops where accepted participants will be grouped together with EU policy experts for a journey from the current state to a future state in each topic area. We aim to produce a report in each policy area arising from each workshop.

During this workshop experts from the European Commission will try to get inputs from the open source community on how to efficiently build interoperability between digital services, required by EU law, with the help of open source software and OSS businesses and developers.

Our audience will then be involved in a brainstorming session on the reality of open source and its capabilities to build interoperability between digital services. The session is led by Amandine le Pape, and will include the rapporteur feedback for the overall workshop from Simon Phipps.
