“Bewusst sein” (Be aware) is the motto for 2023: What does it mean to choose open source, perhaps even specifically a particular project or product? How do I contribute my knowledge to projects in a responsible and sustainable way? What are the consequences of my decisions, for example for a specific license?” Get ready for great lectures, workshops, and program.
