Informal gatherings (BoF)

Meet the initiative leads (fago & dasjo) to discuss the status and next steps for porting the Rules module to Drupal 8.

There is a growing number of us that are challenging the status quo of the world, both in the ways we are working and with the projects that we are creating.

We want to get together in this BOF to hear from you, exchange our experiences and simply connect and talk about the idea that the world could maybe get a little bit better with every new Drupal project, while we are thriving ourselves.

No matter if you're not satisfied with the way things are and want to change how you work and what you work for, if you're already trying to make the way you work and live as sustainable as the projects you are working on or if you found the holy grail of work-life-bliss already, come join us and share your story.

Discussion about the challenges and experiences gained while growing a business from zero to hero. 

Remote communications are essentials to Open Source communities and have been traditionally the strongholds of free implementations of solutions like mailling lists, IRC and XMPP. But with the rise of HTTP based chat protocols we seen the proprietary empire striking back and for the sake of ease of use and accessibility we gave up the freedom of our communication backbones. For convenient upbringing we even hooked up our beloved Open Source communities with freemium plans from SaaS providers that don't support our communities and rather do bar gaining on basic features like chat history.

With Rocket.Chat there is an actual Open Source implementation of a HTTP chat solution that keeps the convenience while still empowering the freedom. In collaboration with the Debian/Ubuntu community they even made upbringing of self hosted instances a breeze and reconquered some abandoned strongholds back in companies and communities. Within the Drupal galaxy we started loving Rocket.Chat as an upstream that accepts changes and patches and also let us built DrupalChat as central Rocket.Chat instance for our community.

Let's continue this Open Source romance here with a BoF including our dear Rocket.Chat folks joining this conference <3
