Today, the #EU will launch a new legal entity aimed at supporting the development of the #DigitalCommons.
The so-called European Digital Infrastructure Consortium (#EDIC) is a legal instrument that allows EU countries to pool resources and "coordinate with communities to develop, maintain and scale digital commons and facilitate their uptake."
Depending on who leads it, this #DCEDIC might become something great, or it could end in failure just as #GaiaX did. 🍿
On 29 October, the European Commission adopted a decision establishing the Digital Commons European Digital Infrastructure Consortium (DC-EDIC), a new instrument enabling Member States to jointly develop, deploy and operate cross-border digital infrastructures with dedicated governance and legal personality.
Today at #OSXP, I have the honour of hosting a round table discussion: Closing the backdoor: technological sovereignty with Open Source

Starting Thursday 11 December, 09:55, Salle 1 (International Track) https://www.opensource-experience.com/en/video-replays/
