First public sign of the #UbuntuSummit 2023 in Riga, Latvia, Nov 3-5, I will be in the organization team again, and will also do 1 or 2 sessions about #OpenPrinting: https://events.canonical.com/event/31/

I assume that, as before, #Canonical will carry all expenses for speakers, hosts, and panel guests.

It is Fri, Nov 3, 2PM EET to Sun, Nov 5, 6PM EET, so it is over a weekend.

CfP starts on June 1 and ends July 2.

I hope I will see you all on this great #Ubuntu event!

Why we're here and not at the hellsite.

#Twitter is expected to end its participation in the EU's code of practice of disinformation in the coming days.

The code of practice is a voluntary rulebook that contains measures meant to counter online disinformation.

Sounds good. Show me source code, so I can audit that for myself.
