Atomic Mail, a Tallinn-based email company, has launched what it says is the first email service that lets an AI agent register and operate its own inbox without a human setting it up first. The open-alpha service is free, built on the open JMAP standard, and uses Proof-of-Work plus reputation scoring to keep spam out.

It's a pity, that the probably most promising "Discord killer" is not even mentioned on the "AlternativeTo" page: #Movim by @movim 🤷

It's federated, it' s based on #openStandards, it's #freeSoftware, it's not VC backed.

😲😳 #wsocial…. Remember 03 June 2026?

It was already a beautiful day⛅️, and it became even brighter☀️ when the European Commission presented its European Tech Sovereignty package. Across every layer, AI, cloud, software, one theme kept coming back: #opensource, #openstandards, #interoperability, #transparency, and #control over our own digital future…

What the hack is this U-turn from the @EUCommission⁉️

W Social, Public Institutions and the Theater of European Digital Sovereignty

European public institutions are betting big on digital sovereignty and open source software. And yet they recently moved their Bluesky accounts to W Social, a private, for profit network owned by Swedish entrepreneurs that has quietly gone closed-source.

WHERE OTHERS LOSE CONTROL – WE STAY IN THE LOOP.

At Infinito.Nexus, we believe that AI should never replace human judgment. We are the captains. AI is our navigator. While others hand over responsibility to black-box systems, we stay in control. We design the architecture, review the code, verify every deployment, and make the decisions that shape the future of the systems we build. AI is one of the most powerful tools ever created. But it remains a tool. We are the engineers, architects, and craftsmen who use it to build sovereign digital infrastructure faster, more reliably, and at a scale that was impossible only a few years ago. […]

Google published the Open Knowledge Format on June 12, a markdown standard for AI-agent knowledge. Same day, it wired OKF into its paid Knowledge Catalog. The strategy: give away the portable file format, route demand toward the proprietary serving layer. https://www.implicator.ai/google-open-sources-a-knowledge-format-and-wires-it-into-its-catalog/ #AI #OpenStandards #GoogleCloud
Google Open-Sources OKF, a Markdown Format for AI Agents

Google's Open Knowledge Format makes AI-agent knowledge a free, vendor-neutral markdown standard. The same day it shipped, Google wired the format into the Knowledge Catalog it charges to run, and the spec leaves the paid serving layer out of scope. Openness, it turns out, is the strategy.

Today the Metaverse Standards Forum and RP1 introduced Sneeze, the world's first open metaverse browser engine, available now under the Apache 2.0 license.

Sneeze does for spatial computing what Blink and WebKit do for the web: provides an open, community-owned foundation that no single company controls. Built on OpenXR, glTF, WebAssembly, and other open standards.

Source code and docs at omb.wiki.

Khronos has formed a Volumetric Media Subgroup to extend glTF for interoperability across the volumetric pipeline — capture, encoding, streaming, and playback. The effort includes a liaison agreement with the Volumetric Format Association, which will adopt glTF as its primary format for future specifications.

Any organization is welcome to join and contribute. Full details at the link.

The Khronos Group has announced glTF 2.1, a backward-compatible revision of the core spec focused on one goal: making glTF work as well for large, composed scenes as it does for single assets.

New in 2.1: external asset references, scene packaging, bounding volume hierarchies, thumbnails, 64-bit GLB, and more...

Spec development is open on GitHub. Learn more: https://www.khronos.org/blog/introducing-gltf-2.1-with-complex-scenes

Also, wenn jetzt einer sagt "Das ist doch ein Hohn, dass der jetzt so Microsoft hinterherhechelt!", dann hat er vermutlich einen guten Punkt. So ein Schwachsinn und ein Bärendienst für die #opensource Community. Kann man das anders als mit Profitstreben und Narzismus erklären?
