State of the Plone Community
By: Érico Andrei
The Plone CMS is one of the oldest, and most successful open source software stories, and its success is driven by a healthy and diverse worldwide community.
Érico Andrei will discuss how a (mostly) online community uses sprints, conferences and other events as a powerful tool to onboard new members, steer the software development and reinvent itself, always with the support of the Plone Foundation.
No ICT without mineral extraction
By: Johan Yans — Olivier Vergeynst
Mining/extraction of mineral resources (for ICT and other usages) logically involves geological, technological and engineering concerns. However, it also deals with numerous other essential aspects, although less discussed by medias/citizen/experts, such as economy (“circular economy”), sociology (“social acceptability” or “perception of mining by the citizen”), ethics (“artisanal mining”), geopolitics (“strategic/critical commodities”, “national strategies”), environment (“waste”, “post-mining”), teaching (including popularization), land management (zones dedicated to extraction), philosophy (“needs” of ICT for Humans), history (current impacts of former supplies), law (how to legislate/regulate?)…
With his experience in various countries/projects, Johan Yans will expose some of these aspects, with a particular focus on the supply of geological resources for ICT needs. Olivier Vergeynst will then introduce the basics of Sustainable IT, highlighting some best practices to start reducing your impact as ICT professional or as simple user of digital devices and services.
