51d 5h 50m 32s


A MEETING POINT FOR FOSS COMMUNITIES

This year the Conference is not only a meeting point for the global LibreOffice
community to but also an opportunity to welcome organizations and institutions
creating, working with and promoting Free and Open Source Software.

In addition to the talks, presentations and workshops related to LibreOffice we
welcome proposals from other projects, communities and organisations in the
suggested additional tracks:


OPEN SOURCE

LibreOffice is just one of many software that are part of the Free and Open
Source world.

We invite the many local and global community to participate to the conference
to show who is creating the digital tools that everyone uses often without even
realising they are using FOSS projects.

Topics we will to cover include projects financing, software security, the
impacts that the Cyber Resilience Act will have on Open Source projects and how
Open Source Programme Office (OSPO) can help in driving forward the adoption of
Open Source software.


DIGITAL SOVEREIGNTY

Organisations and nations depend on platforms that could create compliance
issues, lead to unsustainable costs or even become unavailable leaving them
unable to perform even the most basic task of writing documents or sending
email.

Planning for resilience, technological autonomy and data sovereignty are
essential elements that allow companies and nations to prosper and innovate.


INTEROPERABILITY

Data and applications interoperability are the essential to allow innovation to
happen without creating new proprietary silos.

Open Source projects have been the main drivers and promoters of standards that
enable the integration of applications and the exchange of data removing
barriers introduced by proprietary document and data formats.

The Open Document Format (ODF) used as the default format in LibreOffice is one
of the standards that will be discussed.


EDTECH

LibreOffice is not only a Free and Open Source office suite, is also an
educational project that can also be used to teach how to contribute to large
projects in many ways.

There are many other projects and communities specialised in the technologies
that help the educational sector in provide the Open Source tools that students
can use and modify to become the next generation of creators instead of
consumers of technologies.

We would like to bring together local and international EdTech organisations
that share our same passion for Open Source tools.


CALL FOR PAPERS

To share information about your project, community and experiences don’t forget
to submit your talk or request to organise workshops.

The deadline for submitting your proposal is the 15th of August.
