[FOSSY-attendees] Complete Corresponding Summary of day 3

FOSSY Organizers conference at sfconservancy.org
Sun Aug 4 01:03:05 UTC 2024


Tomorrow is the last day of the conference 😭 It's been so incredible
connecting with all of you! Thanks again for making this such a great
event. We were particularly impressed by all the amazing produce that
was shared from the farmer's market 🫐🍑🍓

Since a lot of you will be traveling tomorrow, we'll have a space inside
the ballroom on the right to drop off your suitcases in a tended area
with a staff member. We'll ask you to take a picture of your suitcase,
to show us when you pick it up to verify ownership. If you do not have a
device capable of taking a picture, we'll issue you a ticket to give us
upon pickup.

Tomorrow's keynote is about FOSS Outside of Corporations. Whether
governmental, non-profit, education, or elsewhere, how do we make sure
there is a digital future that is not reliant upon financing from
corporations? The panel will be led by SFC's Executive Director Karen
Sandler, with John Sullivan, Kate Chapman, Rosy Schechter, and Sriram
Ramkrishna. Be sure to come early so you can get some coffee and
breakfast before the 9:45 start! We'll be open at 8:45am.

The Wild Card track continues tomorrow and is joined by FOSS Funding and
Economics and AI and Machine Learning to round out the last day:

We'll be sending out a survey tomorrow. It'd help us a ton if you could
take 3 minutes to fill it out while the conference is fresh in your
mind. It'll help inform our choices about next year (!!).

Don't forget to follow @conservancy at social.sfconservancy.org for
updates during the conference, and share your own media and thoughts
with #FOSSY24.

A few other logistics notes:
  * There are gender neutral bathrooms on the 4th floor and single stall
    gender neutral bathrooms in the basement (accessible by stairs and
    elevator).
  * You can find any lost and found items at the registration desk.
  * Make sure to enter the building on the Broadway side (east side of
    the building). You can exit out of any of the doors, but only the
    "front" entrance will be open each day.
  * Just a reminder, that if you ask a question during the keynote or
     a talk, you might be on video. So be mindful if you are trying to avoid
     being recorded (even if you are wearing a red lanyard).

Onward to Sunday!,
-FOSSY Organizing Team

PS: We've got Copyleft Conf bags available at registration, we'd love to
give them out to folks! So please come grab one if interested!
