Today is the last to day to register for #OpenChain and Friends in Stuttgart next week. We'll have a small #unconference session on the second half of the third day (which I will have the honor to moderate). There will be a lot of talks (and people to talk to!) on #FOSS, #CRA, #compliance, #cybersecurity, #sovereignity, #softwaredefinedvehicle, #innovation, #openhardware
