now, normal people buy smart toasters & coffee mugs while every techie I know is on the verge of retreating to the forest

New blog post: Why are we building the Trans Europe Planner?

English version: https://trans-europe-planner.eu/blog.html#why

German version: https://trans-europe-planner.eu/blog.html#warum

Our project directors Patricia Leu and Marie Kreil are now looking back on eight years of the Prototype Fund.

Among other things, they talk about the wild early years, federal travel expense laws, pizza, Lego, talks about and with the Prototype Fund, (mega) demo days & weeks, pandemic, foreign intelligence operation, open source licenses, table sizes, Wi-Fi in the mountains of India, procrastination when it comes to applications, and so much more.

Today we're at the 8 years party of the @PrototypeFund in Berlin 🥳

Come to our booth, have a look and try the installer with our test devices 🙌📲

And here we go: We start the day with a welcome address by Dr. Stephan Pfisterer from @bmbf_bund!

„The current events should encourage us all to recognize transparency, traceability and participation as important building blocks of an open, democratic society, especially in the technology sector. This is exactly what the projects of the Prototype Fund and the developers stand for.“ - we wholeheartedly agree!

Seit acht Jahren fördern wir jetzt schon gemeinwohlorientierte #OpenSource Software. Mittlerweile haben wir bereits 387 Projekte auf dem Weg zum Prototypen begleitet - Zeit, zu feiern!

Wir laden am 29.03. herzlich in den Festsaal Kreuzberg ein. Kommt vorbei!
