  Open source maintainers build the critical digital infrastructure the world relies on, and open standards define how that infrastructure functions across systems. When the people who implement these technologies help write the standards, this results in better, more secure, and more interoperable technology: improving both our daily digital lives and our ability to understand and adapt technology. @hko@floss.social @miri64@ohai.social @tarakiyee@mastodon.online (1/3)

  At #OSPOsforGood Day at #UNOpenSourceWeek, Policy and Research Lead Paul Sharratt spoke to a standing-room-only audience on the panel “Financing Open Source and Digital Public Goods: A Multi-Stakeholder Approach.” Paul made the case for why open source infrastructure requires dedicated public investment. Critical open source is a classic market failure. The software provides enormous economic and social value, but private actors have little incentive to invest in maintaining it: 1/

  In early June, we announced that we had signed a Memorandum of Understanding with DIN Deutsches Institut für Normung e. V. (the German Institute for Standardization) to strengthen open source participation in international standards development.

  #UNOpenSourceWeek has been a timely moment to discuss how open source software, open standards, and digital public goods can be better governed, funded, and sustained as shared digital infrastructure. We’re therefore very pleased that the Internet Governance Forum’s Multistakeholder Advisory Group has approved a new Policy Network on Open Digital Infrastructure for the 2026 IGF cycle. (1/6)

  Last week we launched the Sovereign Tech Standards network. The pilot program brings open source maintainers into global standards development, where their expertise is crucial but too often missing. A survey of maintainers with whom the Sovereign Tech Agency has worked revealed that three-quarters of respondents actively rely on standards, yet very few can afford to participate in their development long term.
