Brewster Kahle

Brewster Kahle is a passionate advocate for public Internet access, and a successful entrepreneur, and he has spent his career intent on a singular focus: providing Universal Access to All Knowledge. He is the founder and Digital Librarian of the Internet Archive, one of the largest libraries in the world. Soon after graduating from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he studied artificial intelligence, Kahle helped found the company Thinking Machines, a parallel supercomputer maker. In 1989, Kahle created the Internet's first publishing system, called Wide Area Information Server (WAIS), later selling the company to AOL. In 1996, Kahle co-founded Alexa Internet, which helps catalog the Web, selling it to Amazon.com in 1999. The Internet Archive, which he founded in 1996, now preserves 50 petabytes of data: the books, Web pages, music, television, and software of our cultural heritage, working with more than 600 library and university partners to create a digital library, accessible to all.

Free the Future Youth Keynote Panel

+
+: Saturday 09:45 - 10:30 - Opening Keynote +: Back Bay Grand +
+: Keynote +
+
The future of the free software movement depends upon the work of its youngest members, the developers and community members responsible for carrying on the legacy of its founding ideas. As all of us in the world of free software have something to learn from this generation of newcomers, the FSF will be presenting an interview panel with three rising members of the community: Alyssa Rosenzweig, Panfrost developer and former FSF intern; Taowa, the youngest (non-uploading) Debian Developer in the project's history; and Erin Moon, developer of the Rustodon implementation of ActivityPub.
+
+The panel will focus on topics that are crucial to the movement's continuing success and "freeing the future," including keeping our focus on the principles of freedom, making a place for the youngest or historically excluded members of the community, and responding to the rise of surveillance capitalism. The panel will be moderated by Greg Farough, campaigns manager of the FSF.

Alyssa Rosenzweig, Taowa, and Erin Moon

+
Alyssa Rosenzweig is a free software hacker working at Collabora. Passionate about freedom at the lowest levels, she leads the Panfrost project to build a free graphics stack for Mali GPUs. She is studying Applied Mathematics at the University of Toronto as a Lester B. Pearson International Scholar. Outside school and software, she likes to make pony puns on XMPP, trot around Toronto, and horse around in the kitchen.
+
+Taowa is a (non-uploading) Debian Developer, sysadmin, and free software enthusiast. His interests are in privacy and security tools (and making these accessible to everyone), as well as amateur radio, networking and electronics. Did we mention he's not old enough to vote yet?
+
+Erin Moon is an engineer, student, musician, and very tired. She's used, contributed to, and developed free software since she was a small kid. Over the last three years, her open source work has focused on federated social media software, as a user, contributor, and maintainer. Her other personal work includes digital signal processing research for musical purposes, ROM hacking, operating system development, and electrical hardware engineering.

How to make more users love free software

+
+: Sunday 13:35 - 14:20 +: Patriot +
+: Community +
+
In the free software ecosystem most users end up being someone who has a technological background. Meanwhile, many regular software users stick to proprietary solutions.
+
+This talk covers the love story between free software and usability and how easily we can improve the user experience on our products by running usability tests along different stages of the development cycle. Further, we will learn how to run these tests on our own, while commenting on experiences running usability tests on GNOME. We also discuss how to create ways for the community to start contributing.

Clarissa Borges

+
Clarissa Borges is a Software Engineering student at the University of Brasília, where she learned to love free software. She always loved designing software architectures, programming, and automating tasks. But knowing all of this was not enough, because the whole point of creating software for her was to ease people's lives, and she didn't know how to make her software more usable.
+
+At this point, Clarissa heard about Outreachy and found a Usability Research project to GNOME. This was the perfect occasion to contribute to a software she has been using for so many years and learn how to improve usability on software products. From December 2018 to March 2019, she worked running usability tests to some important GNOME programs, such as Settings, Notes, Nautilus/ Files, Calendar and Gedit.
+
+After the internship, she wanted to help GNOME with frequent usability tests contributions. To archieve that, she has been working on her undergraduate thesis to find a solution to facilitate to non-technical people to contribute with usability tests. She has also been contributing to GNOME, encouraging people to become contributors and being active on GNOME's Brazilian community.

The Four Free-ums?

+
Software licenses that give people freedom are facing scrutiny
+from a variety of interests and organizations. This session seeks to
+articulate the core values of software freedom: how the tenets of GNU's
+Four Freedoms and the Open Source Definition's criteria enable networks
+of collaboration and co-creation. Current issues from a variety of
+interested parties are considered, not on their value as a movement,
+but rather their impact on the freedoms to run, study, modify, and
+redistribute works. Alternative approaches to licensing that can
+address concerns of communities will also be offered.
