The @EU_Commission has launched a public #policy consultation on the rules defining the European #standards system (aka regulation 1025). The top-line for me is it completely ignores #OpenSource while making both engagement in standardisation and use of standards very hard for open source community members.
Unsurprisingly, the consultation's survey makes it extremely hard to tell them this! I think @osi will be attaching a letter to its input! The deadline is July 25.

Zu wenige Standards, zu langsam u nicht verbindlich - das sind wesentliche Gründe für unseren Rückstand bei der Digitalisierung der Verwaltung, auch bei der Umsetzung des #Onlinezugangsgesetz.
I'm getting ready for the kickoff of an #NSF POSE grant workshop. So many good papers to reference, so little time. I'd better start a Zotero library now... #OpenSource#Standards#Metadata
Looks like the big #OpenSource foundations have got tired of being blocked by the #standards massif amd the @EU_Commission over #CRA standards and are organising their own initiative.
Hot on the heels of a post I wrote 4 years ago, wouldn't it be useful to have a well-known URl for user avatar images? When I sign up to a web service, I don't want to faff around uploading an image to use as my avatar. I want that service to look at my […]
With excellent timing given the upcoming request for #standards for #CRA compliance and the forthcoming review of regulation 1025 and standards #policy, CJEU has ruled that "harmonised standards form part of EU law" and cannot be kept secret as there is always a public interest in their disclosure.

Couldn't be happier nor more satisfied !! 😁🌈😁
Standardization is promoted as a solution to achieve ethical AI. I attend to the tension between standardization and AI transparency. Overall, this article stresses the complexity of governing sociotechnical AI principles by standardization.
Cet article (🇬🇧) explique tellement bien ce qui cloche avec Tailwind.css ! Ça me rassure de voir que ce point de vue existe toujours. Tailwind est simplement très très fort en communication/manipulation.
À lire !
