Overview

An evening for the people who keep open source projects alive, held in a former bakery workshop a few steps from Leopoldplatz.

Three short talks open the night: funding a project without losing your weekends, writing governance before you need it, and triage habits that keep an issue tracker humane. After that the room breaks into tables by topic, with remote maintainers joining the stream and dialling into a shared table on the big screen.

Drinks and soup from 18:00, talks from 18:30, tables until nine. Whether you maintain a library with millions of downloads or a tool used by twelve people who love it, you are welcome. Free with RSVP; the hybrid link is sent to everyone who registers.
