#BoilingTheOcean 9 is next weekend (Feb 13-15)! This time our main topic is identity in peer-to-peer systems. How can we prevent impersonation? What about large groups? What are defenses against physical attacks?

On Friday night we'll have a talk and discussion on these questions at @offline. Over the weekend we're at Cultivation Space and try to work through some of these questions (and hack on our other usual topics like mobile, GNOME UX, and more!)

Hello world! We are Modal, a new collective born out of the local Berlin community around Linux infrastructure. We're involved in projects like GNOME, postmarketOS, p2panda, and systemd.

We organize the #BoilingTheOcean events, and work upstream on a number of difficult problems in emancipatory computing, including local-first networking, mainline Linux on phones, and platform security.

Our long-term goal: A free software platform that's competitive with the iPhone 🌈

Since there's CCC and FOSDEM coming up, the next #BoilingTheOcean is happening in February!

The weekend of February 14-15th we'll be hacking as usual, but on the 13th we'll also have an evening of talks and discussions on identity in peer-to-peer systems, with @bumbleblue and @shibacomputer ✨

More details TBA :)
