Hi everyone, and welcome to the EOLE 2026 space!
This year’s edition is dedicated to open source and sovereignty from a legal perspective, with a deliberate stance: “Sovereignty is not a compliance issue.” Free Software has been building digital autonomy for forty years; the point is not to map yet another regulation onto open ecosystems, but to chart the tools, licences, and governance practices that already deliver sovereignty.
Online kick-off workshop: 25 June, 3:00 to 6:00 pm (CEST)
We’re starting with an online workshop to collaboratively shape the programme, ahead of the in-person EOLE event taking place in Barcelona at the end of the year.
The workshop is just a starting point: it’s meant to kick off the discussions that will then continue here, on this forum, and on a dedicated Matrix channel (link to come). Please consider this category the home for ongoing exchanges: open threads, share ideas, react to others’ proposals, and help shape the programme. The Matrix channel will be there for more informal, real-time conversation.
