From YouTube: State of Open: The UK and its relationship to Open Source in 2021 — Amanda Brock 2.1.1
Description
Did you know that the UK is one of Europe's biggest contributors to open source and is the 5th biggest contributor to the CNCF?
In this talk, Amanda will introduce OpenUK, its recent OpenUK Report and survey, and will describe why governance, sustainability and open technology is so important. She will review how Brexit and geopolitical shifts have impacted open source technology, and provide information on training and mentoring programs, as well as available apprenticeships and kids camps.
B
Yes
well
good
morning,
amanda,
can
you
hear
us.
B
Oh
no,
no
audio,
yet
you
can't
hear
me
either:
okay,
slight
technical
problems
just
bear
with
us
here.
Folks.
A
C
A
B
Of
those
one
of
those
conferences,
the
last
two
days
have
been
slight
panics
in
the
starting,
the
starting
keynotes,
so
welcome
amanda.
Thank
you
so
much
for
joining
us.
So
I
am
slightly
biased,
but
open
uk
is
an
absolutely
fantastic
organization.
B
Promoting
the
open
source
software
open
hardware
and
open
data
across
the
uk.
Amanda
brock
is
the
ceo
of
open
uk
and
is
our
opening
keynote
speaker.
So
would
you
like
to
share
your
screen
amanda
and
we'll
get
you
on
the
way.
A
C
Okay
well
good
morning,
everybody,
I'm
amanda
barack,
as
matt
said,
I'm
the
ceo
at
open,
uk
and
we're
the
industry
organization
in
the
uk
for
open
technology.
C
C
Too
far,
no,
we
haven't
right.
So
the
reason
I
know
this
is
hard
fact
is
that
open
uk
started
this
year
for
the
first
time
to
produce
reports,
and,
of
course,
you
know,
we're
quite
logical,
analytical
people,
so
we
started
at
the
beginning.
We
went
out
into
the
marketplace
to
see
what
was
already
there
and
in
pulling
together
phase
one.
What
we
did
was
we
brought
together
the
literature
that
exists
across
the
technology
sector
about
open
source,
and
that
was
a
huge
range
of
different
reports.
C
I've
put
the
url
up
there,
you
can
go
online,
you
can
download
it.
You
can
read
it.
One
of
the
reports
we
looked
at
was
the
cncf
annual
report
from
2020,
and
we
got
them
to
give
us
stats
cut
for
the
uk
in
a
way
that
hadn't
been
done
before,
and
what
we
were
able
to
see
and
to
prove
without
a
doubt,
is
the
importance
of
your
community,
the
importance
of
this
community
to
global
technology,
because,
in
fact,
where
you
guys
sit,
is
the
fifth
biggest
contributor
to
kubernetes
to
cloud
native
globally.
C
You
can
also
contact
hello
or
admin
at
open,
uk
dot.
Uk
follow
us
on
twitter
drop
us
a
dm,
we're
always
ready
to
engage
with
you.
We
spoke
to
somebody
who
I
know
you're
very
familiar
with
matt
barker
and
he's
one
of
the
people
speaking
to
you
guys
in
the
last
two
days.
Now,
in
speaking
to
all
of
you,
he's
one
of
the
leaders
and
if
you
look
across
the
program
from
the
last
two
days
of
this
event,
it
is
incredible.
C
You
have
a
significant
proportion
of
the
kubernetes
cncf
world
leaders
sitting
here
in
the
uk.
So
it's
not
just
about
scale
of
contribution.
It's
about
the
leadership
that's
being
shown
in
this
space
and
that's
what's
making
you
really
special,
now
matt's
one
of
those
people,
you
can't
see
anything
bad
about
and
he's
also
our
entrepreneur
in
residence.
Open.
Uk
we've
worked,
as
I
say,
with
many
people
from
your
community,
including
cheryl,
who
I
know
has
now
moved
on
from
cncf,
but
who
I
think
is
still
going
to
be
running
her
meetups.
C
So
we've
heard
from
that
community
within
our
reports
and
I'd
really
encourage
you
to
go
to
them.
We've
done
phases
one
and
two
and
we'll
have
phase
three
on
the
13th
of
october
year
on
year
we
will
produce
updates
to
those
reports.
If
you've
got
suggestions
for
organizations
we
should
showcase
or
how
we
do
it
better
come
and
talk
to
us
within
the
reports.
We
didn't
just
look
at
cncf,
we
looked
at
red
hat
and
others,
and
you
can
see
how
important
your
software
kubernetes
is
viewed.
C
We
then
worked
on
the
european
commission's
statistical
empirical
survey
and
outputs,
which
were
published,
I
think
two
weeks
ago,
but
shared
back
in
february.
So,
although
we
published
before
them,
we
were
able
to
use
their
work
and
what
we
saw
there
was
using
the
european
union's
figures.
We
got
to
a
contribution
year
and
year
to
gdp
as
of
2019
of
43.15
billion
up
to
43.15
billion.
Now,
look
at
those
numbers,
the
european
commission.
C
Before
brexit
was
saying
there
were
490
000
contributors,
490
000
developers
around
europe,
contributing
to
open
source
as
we
brexited
they
reduced
that
to
260..
Now,
unsurprisingly,
that's
not
a
number
they
shout
about,
but
we
should
be,
and
one
of
the
things
that
I've
seen
here
in
the
uk
is
we're
just
too
shy.
How
often
do
you
tell
someone
you're
part
of
one
of
the
biggest
movements,
one
of
the
the
most
important
small
groups
and
technology
in
the
history
of
technology?
C
So
if
I
was
to
make
that
230
I'd
be
almost
doubling
the
43.15
billion,
the
open
source
is
contributing
to
gb
gdp
and
using
statistics
provided
by
tech
nation.
They
are
saying
that
that
is
20
to
40
percent
of
the
digital
economy.
Now
I
would
challenge
that
we're
worth
much
more
than
that
as
an
overall
open
technology
community,
and
I
suspect
that
we're
up
to
about
60
percent
I
haven't
put
in-
and
I
probably
should
have
some
stats
from
phase
two,
I'm
going
to
encourage
you
to
go
off
and
look
at
that.
C
C
C
Earlier
this
year
I
joined
in
2019,
and
I
was
given
a
remit
that
I
could
shape
an
organization
that
would
be
the
future
looking
geographical
organization
for
open
technology
open
source
we
brought
in
the
three
opens
straight
away,
but
we've
also
shifted
and
I
keep
banging
on
a
bit
about
the
being
the
organization
for
the
business
of
open
source.
The
other
organizations
like
us
across
the
globe
represent
the
local
companies.
They
represent
the
smes
and
we
also
do
they
are
a
constituent
part
of
what
we
do
but
they're,
not
the
only
part.
C
Many
of
our
uk
constituency
work
for
international
companies.
They
work
for
non-technology
companies,
some
work
in
open
source,
some
work
in
mainstream
tech.
All
of
you
are
welcome
to
participate
in
open
uk
and
again
we
have
shifted.
We
started
with
a
purpose
that
was
very
focused
on
the
uk
unsurprising
january
2020.
We
were
trying
to
find
our
way
this
july.
We
have
reconfigured
that
purpose
with
matt
and
the
other
board
members,
and
he
is
biased.
C
We've
reconfigured
that
purpose
to
have
a
more
international
and
more
realistic
reflection
of
what
we
actually
do
and
we're
developing
uk
leadership
with
and
in
global
collaboration
and
open
technology.
We've
joined
all
the
major
organizations
that
we're
aware
of.
We
put
people
forward
to
sit
on
their
committees
and
boards.
If
you're
interested
in
doing
any
of
that
on
behalf
of
open
uk
we'd
love
to
hear
from
you,
jen
ashley
is
our
partnership
director
and
she,
a
volunteer
is
pulling
together.
C
People
who
sit
on
those
and
do
reporting
and
things
with
them
and
matt
rears
his
ugly
head
again.
If
you
don't
mind
me
saying
in
the
back
of
this
photo,
this
is
our
one
and
only
physical
attendance
at
a
conference
as
open
uk
under
my
remix,
who
knew
I
had
20
conferences
booked
last
january
anyway.
This
is
us
at
fosdem
and
it
was
a
really
important
fosudem.
C
It
was
our
first
as
open
uk
in
this
guys
and
we
did
a
teen
biscuits
with
the
brits
giveaway.
We
wanted
to
engage
with
people
across
europe
as
we
were
brexiting,
and
I
mean,
as
we
were
brexiting
that
stand
on
the
right
is
on
the
1st
of
february
2020..
C
If
you
look
left
you'll,
see
cheryl
myself,
jonathan
riddle,
who's
our
awards,
chair
and
kavita
kapoor,
who
is
our
chief
learning
officer
outside
the
commission,
and
I
think
that's
sort
of
bang
on
midnight
just
before,
because
the
lights
went
out
and
there
was
a
message
for
us
to
take
away
from
the
commission
as
we
brexited.
The
lights
went
out
on
us
in
europe,
but
we
don't
want
that
to
be
how
we
feel
about
open
source.
It's
not
local
source,
it's
open
source,
it's
open
technology,
it's
about
international
collaboration
and
in
open
uk.
C
It's
not
something!
That's
you
know
board
members
asked
you
to
do
if
you're
interested
come
and
contact
us.
We
want
you,
we
want
you
to
work
with
us.
We
want
to
engage
with
you
and
we
want
you
to
share
the
message.
So
what
is
that
message?
Well,
we
work
on
three
pillars:
community,
legal
and
policy
and
learning,
and
what
we
want
to
do
for
the
uk
is
ensure
that
our
community
has
a
voice.
C
Those
230
000
plus
developers-
I
was
talking
about
whether
than
belfast
cardiff
swansea
edinburgh,
ken
essex,
whatever
we
want
you
all
to
come
together
to
create
the
power
of
this
community
and
it's
working.
So
we
are
building
this
visible
and
loud
voice
across
our
open
communities.
In
the
uk,
we've
used
an
awards.
We
have
one
running
now
we
have
a
short
list
of
23
eight
award
categories.
C
Last
year
we
created
an
honors
list.
It
was
a
bit
of
a
joke.
It
was
meant
to
be
a
one-off
to
cheer
everybody
up
in
brexit,
however,
that
bit
of
a
joke
that
me
thinking
this
would
make
everybody
smile
at
midnight
on
new
year's
eve
of
our
brexit
year
had
nearly
300
000
engagements
on
twitter.
C
That's
with
1
000.
I
think
it's
1
200
followers
at
that
time.
That's
nothing
to
do
with
me.
That's
nothing
to
do
with
matt
or
anybody
else
on
the
board.
That's
your
power!
That's
your
community's
power
and
what
you
can
achieve.
Sorry,
I'm
welling
up.
I
find
it
just
incredible
what
you've
done
this
wasn't
just
a
single
tweet.
We
had
460
000
impressions
across
january
on
twitter.
I
mean
I,
I
don't
think
you
can
buy
that.
To
be
quite
frank,
we
also
I
didn't
expect
to
well
up.
C
I've
been
locked
up
on
my
own
too
long.
We
also
try
to
influence
legal
and
policy
and
I
think,
we're
being
successful.
We
spent
a
long
time
knocking
at
doors
trying
to
get
into
government,
and
that
shifted.
That's
changed
that
I
don't
normally
cry
when
I
present
I'm
sorry,
it's
just
seeing
those
slides
I've
not
looked
at
it
for
a
while.
C
What
we
see
in
legal
and
policy
is
that
the
the
european
union,
the
open
source
observatory,
recognized
us
within
months
as
the
power
and
open
in
the
uk
as
the
actor
that
legal
and
policy
group's
got
about
18
to
20
lawyers.
It's
got
policy
people,
it's
got
advisors
if
anyone's
interested
again,
the
door
is
open.
C
If
you
have
a
quick
look
at
our
website,
all
of
our
submissions
to
government
are
on
the
site,
they're
all
visible.
We
are
increasingly
trying
to
respond
to
the
devolved
nations,
as
well
as
the
uk
and
eu
proposals,
and
we
really
stuck
our
neck
out
around
brexit.
In
this
geopolitical
shift.
We
made
a
a
calculated
risk
decision
and
we
joined
guyax
and
gaia
x
has
been
built
in
open
source
software.
C
It
is
about
open
data,
it
is
the
european
union's
federated
data
services
project,
which
is
building
a
platform
for
data
in
the
eu
and
open
uk
was
described
as
the
uk
lifeline.
We
were
one
of
only
two
organizations
that
stepped
up
and
joined
from
the
uk,
and
I
hope
that
you'll
see
that,
as
we
emerge
in
the
next
sort
of
six
months,
where
we
may
well
be
leading
the
hub
for
the
uk
on
data,
that's
obviously
just
as
important
as
software.
C
We
we
ended
up
with
two
direct
quotations
from
our
submission
now
chris,
who
runs
that
must
have
gone
through
with
a
fine
toothed
gum.
I
would
never
have
found
that,
but
he
found
those
and
they're
highlighted
on
the
site.
We've
done.
Our
two
phases
of
a
report.
Third,
is
out
on
the
13th
of
october
importantly,
phase.
One
literature,
review,
phase,
two
focused
on
case
studies
and
the
the
survey
phase.
Three
is
an
attempt
to
bring
those
together
and
it's
an
attempt.
It
won't
be
perfect.
C
It's
irish
shot
at
trying
to
show
the
economics
of
open
source
in
a
new
way
we're
trying
to
look
at
how
open
actually
generates
value
now.
The
other
benefits
that
come
from
sustainability
from
skills
development
they'll
be
in
there
too,
but
we
want
to
shift
the
economic
model.
Even
the
european
union
report,
it's
almost
a
year
old,
it's
talking
about
total
cost
of
ownership.
It's
looking
at
contribution
lines
of
coding.
I
think
that's
out
of
date.
C
We
haven't
just
tried
to
do
that
on
our
own
we've
already
held
two
international
workshops:
we're
going
to
do
those
quarterly
from
10th
of
december.
Anybody
again
can
come
along
to
those
just
drop
us
a
note,
and
what
we're
looking
at
there
is.
What
reporting
is
being
done,
how
people
are
calculating
these
figures
to
try
and
create
benchmarking
and
consistency?
C
C
C
I
don't
have
a
better
image,
but
this
is
a
cab
drawing
of
the
site
we
will
have
at
cop26,
we'll
have
150
people
in
alarm
and
a
main
dome
50
in
a
learning
dome
francis
maud,
the
former
cabinet
minister,
who
set
up
gds
and
who
has
worked
so
hard
on
opening
up
technology
in
the
uk.
He
will
be
keynoting
it
for
us
and
we
hope
to
have
ministerial
presence.
It
will
all
be
streamed.
I'm
on
the
final
lap
mat
so
learning
our
third
pillar.
You
can
go
back
to
this
deck
I'll
share
it.
C
Last
year
we
started
with
a
competition
pandemic,
hit
us
and
we
pivoted,
and
we
created
a
course
for
the
kids
in
the
competition
it
escalated.
It
was
really
really
well
received,
so
we
shared
it
as
a
summer
camp
and
we
gave
away
over
3000
of
these
glove
kits.
We
entered
the
gnome
community
challenge
and
we
got
runner
up.
We
almost
won
the
glove
kits
this
year.
They
are
not
being
made
anymore
by
pymeroni.
C
What
we've
done
is
we've
built
a
glove
in
the
uk,
so
you'll
see
made
in
the
uk
by
open
uk
a
danny
abercallum,
who
you
all
know
his
dad
has
arranged
seamstresses
to
stitch
the
gloves
because
kids
hate
doing
it
and
we're
incredibly
grateful
to
danny
for
sorting
that
out,
but
also
we
we've
pulled
together.
5
000
of
these
gloves
that
we're
currently
giving
away
3200
are
without
micro
bits.
So
kids,
who
already
have
a
micro
bit,
can
use
them.
1200

C
I
see
in
addition
to
our
three
pillars:
sustainability,
security
and
ospos-
to
be
really
important
in
the
future
of
open
source
and
we're
working
on
those
we've
brought
together.
A
group
looking
at
sustainability
led
by
christian
perino
who's
ex
canonical,
but
also
spent
many
years
working
in
sustainability.
We
have
a
strategy
and
policy.
All
creative
commons
help
yourself.
C
We
have
brought
the
lovely
matt
barker,
who
I've
known
since
he
was
a
lad
in
as
our
entrepreneur
in
residence.
You
know
early
stage
kubernetes
founder
importantly,
and
this
may
be
of
interest
to
some
of
you,
as
well
as
the
future
founders
work.
You'll,
see
a
report
next
week
short
simple
report
on
the
state
of
open
in
the
uk.
From
a
founder's
perspective,
we
will
be
running
training
from
end
of
this
month,
beginning
of
october
free
to
attend
10
sessions.
Looking
at
things
like
product
development,
commercialization
of
open
anybody
can
come
along,
they'll
be
recorded.
C
We
will
share
them
across
communities
so
that
incubators
etc
have
them,
but
importantly,
there'll,
be
a
form
to
fill
out.
If
you
want
to
apply
for
the
program
and
the
program
will
include
mentoring,
we'll
have
mentoring,
we'll
have
a
business
surgery
for
your
for
your
startup
and
matt
will
be
selecting
the
10
to
15
organizations
that
can
have
that
and
then
there's
me,
I'm
not
going
to
tell
you
much
about
myself.
Have
a
look
at
linkedin.
If
you
want
to
connect
with
me,
I
spoke
at
100
of
these
gigs
last
year.
C
This
is
something
about
our
press.
In
year,
one
and
year
two
we
went
from
229
million
muv
to
2.79
billion
by
july,
so
they're
taking
notice
of
us.
And
finally,
finally,
I
have
a
book
that
will
be
coming
out
with
my
name
on
the
front,
I'm
the
editor.
It
is
the
only
time
I
will
be
the
editor
ever
it's
a
horrendous
experience,
not
one
I
would
recommend,
but
the
book
will
be
open
access
and
it's
something
that
you
will
be
able
to
use,
probably
from
january
february,
free
of
charge.
C
B
Oh
you're,
fine,
that
was
fantastic
amanda.
Thank
you
so
much
for
doing
that.
I
think
the
the
emotion
there
just
reinforces
you
know
how
dedicated
you
are
to
to
this
task
and
to
to
all
the
the
communities
that
we
we
support.
We've
really
tried
to
hold
a
message.
You
know
throughout
this
conference
that
you
know
community
is
the
thing
that
that
really
changes
at
the
outcomes
of
of
of
technology-based
things,
and
you
know,
I
think
I
think
your
talk
really
really
made
that
point
very
strongly
as
well.
C
Oh
dear
well,
thank
you
very
much
for
having
me
if
anybody
wants
to
follow
up.
Please
do,
and
it's
really
great
to
see
you
all
getting
together.
