title: Design is Your Friend: Harnessing the Power of Design (and designers) in Open Source
---

It feels like an age since we all met up in person. But instead of a conference this year, we’ve put together a report gathering up some of the issues and opportunities that the open source community faces today. It’ll feature knowledge, experience and discussion, some of which grew out of conversations that happened at the 2020 Sustain event held in Brussels, Belgium.

_The full report is coming soon. If you want to be among the first to know when it arrives, and keep up with other news from the sustain community, sign up at https://sustainoss.org/

Open Collective Project Kick Off
  • use cases
    • might be a need fo folks who are not an admin of the collective to be able to okay expenses for a project
    • modulo - each projec tis a workshowp - they want each teacher/student of the workshop to submit expenses there
    • tenants united south chicago - using it to create funds as an umbrella under each fund

prioritisation sequencing

  • earmarking and operating a spearate budget is the killer feature, eerything else is nice to have
  • trasnferring budget from collective into a project, and visa versa
  • could alrady run around the back and contribute as the collective to the project,
  • this has the tips flow, but maybe doesn't take sense

Package Management Devroom at FOSDEM ‘18

On Saturday 3rd February FOSDEM will host its first devroom dedicated to the subject of package management at ULB.

Topic

As this is the first time we’re hosting a package management devroom we want you to bring your own take. We’re open to exploring issues around distribution, verification, complexity, reproducibility, immutability, versioning, orphaning and sustaining package managers as an essential part of the open source ecosystem. Experiences, cautionary tales and ‘best-practice’ type talks are welcome. We are also considering a panel discussion.

Bath Recommendations/Guide

Places to Stay

There are a fair number of AirBnB places that are available but if you want to stay in a smart hotel while you’re here I would recommend No.1 Royal Crescent, The Priory or (my preference) The MacDonald Hotel. If you’re looking for something a little more down to earth then I would recommend The Thief which offers rooms and the pub downstairs is never too busy.

Out of town slightly there are a couple of options worth the travel into and out of town:

The Pig is a beautiful hotel and restaurant set about 30 minute drive from town Brittons Farm Estate is closer to town and in beautiful countryside setting a taxi ride from central bath.
