Digital Sovereignty WG Kickoff Summary + Recording + Next Steps
Hello Everyone! Thank you to those that were able to attend our first meeting of the Digital Sovereignty Working Group! We had excellent representation from many different countries and organizations. Lots of good perspective and ideas were shared and I am eager to get started! As promised, here is the recording for those that were not able to attend: https://zoom.us/rec/share/QLyhngha_pgXEc2736oPEdDGWz_UI8IZLbHbJGyDWLv7nt4esc... And here is the etherpad where we took notes, but will also continue to use going forward for meeting agendas and general working group coordination: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/Digital-Sovereignty-WG If you watch the recording, please feel free to add your name to the attendees list in the etherpad, just make an additional note that you watched the recording. Everyone is encouraged to add to the notes and content in the etherpad whether they attended the meeting live or watched the recording. The goal is to capture as much participation as possible. Digital sovereignty is a very important topic with an ever developing list of accompanying legislation and we need everyone's perspective! Now, while there wasn't much in the way of immediate todo's, the one request that I have is that folks fill out this poll so that we can select a meeting time <https://beta.framadate.org/polls/5f355daf8e4329e1cd52> for the next one (during the first week of February). Responses to this poll are allowed until January 28th. -Kendall
