Okay, thank you for attending this meeting. I'm from the Open Technology Assembly, which is a non-profit organization, and our president is also in the room here. So the topic of this talk will be the open-source support program that we will be announcing today. So the mission is, as you can read, to support open-source software and any kind of open-source solution project. It doesn't have to be software-only, it can also be hardware. Before we go in details on what we will do and how we will do it, how we would like you to do it, let's talk a bit about the open-source and the Open Technology Assembly non-profit organization, which we are, where did we came from. We came from the Belgian Unix users group, and it was founded in the last century in 1987. So a very long time ago, as you can see on my gray hair, it's been a long time already in that organization. I think one of the most points that we realized in Belgium at least, is that we started the internet. That was together with the University of Leuven. And then, further on, it went into UNET. It was a profit organization, for commercial organization afterwards. It was a bit sold. And from that we got a lot of money, in fact, by doing that. But Belgium Unix users group did more than internet-only. We also promoted the Unix in the last century. It's like CynOS, Solaris afterwards, HPX, Ulterix, all the Unixes that were around. And they were all different flavors. And we held meetings, conferences, to meet people, to organize a lot of talks about it. And one of the steps that we did afterwards was, in fact, to promote open source software, something was created called Linux. It was in 1991. And we jumped on that wagon very early to organize Linux meetings, to promote it, in fact, and also promoting the open source. You can see it in this diagram. This is a bit the history of the Belgian Unix Unix Group and the Open Technology Assembly. As you can see, found in 1987. And from 1992 to 2003, we did a lot of Linux SIG meetings, special interest group meetings. That was typically on Saturday morning. A couple of hours that we did a lot of talk about topics, which were very brand new, sent mail, all these kind of topics that were very hot in the beginning of the 90s, where we have speaking. It's a very long time ago already, but okay. And another thing was, because, as you know, internet now, we have a very big pipeline to download everything what you like and a few seconds where we are speaking, but back in the beginning of the 90s, that was not the case.  Does somebody still know the protocol X25? Okay, still one. Very good. So as you see, internet involved a lot. But at that time, the pipelines were not there but the Linux system on CD-ROMs. It was a big hit, the fact, because it was very loved by the people, and by the members of the Belgian Univiews group and afterwards the Open Technology Assembly. That's passed away in 98. I think that was the last time that we created the CD-ROMs because at that time, the internet got more and more used and also the download was left-needed, the fact. In 96 also, we renamed the Belgian Univiews group to the Open Technology Assembly and because we were more and more going towards the open source and to promote open source projects and stuff like that and also the meetings and the conferences that we did at that time and we thought the Open Technology Assembly is a good name. Well, time will learn. But of course, in the 20th, afterwards like to say, let's begin in the 2000s, 2010, there was less interest in conferences around linings because the internet was... everything was there. You could just download, find everything, so we did not do any conferences anymore. And that was just last year that we decided, yeah, we have still money left from the old times, from the internet effect that we started up. Let's do something with it and fund open source projects. And that is the goal of this talk effect. So now you know the history a bit, where we came from. That's one of the pictures that I just took about the seed realms that we created. I think the best seed realm, there were two seed realms that were very lovely. There's one that contained the museum of the Weblover. That was a kind of context that I did with the guys from the Louvre itself that said, okay, if you can copy it on a CD, it's okay. And we did it. I took a lot of time for it. I wrote a kind of lint program to find all the interlinks that were working on the seed realm. So you could just browse the seed realm through the complete Louvre. That was one of the seed realms effect. It was a fun project. And another one was the Linux 95. Linux 95, by the way. That's big history, but still have the seed realms. So what's next? Because you're now here for the next topic effect. It's the open source support program. Okay. What is the goal? The goal is, as you can read on the left side, is that we would like to sponsor people and projects around open source. And the hardware can be software, can be even conferences or lectures like that. And even pay for hosting. That's also a possibility. If you say we have a project, but I don't have the money to host something, we can provide you with a cost for that. If you want to do some hardware prototyping, that's also a possibility. And what we already did since last year is the sponsored conferences. FOSDOM is not sponsored by us, but tomorrow there is a conference in Ghent, the conference management camp. We are one of the sponsors. And we did last year also some other little conferences around Linux and open source in general effect. So it should be community-based. That's clear. We will not sponsor anything about closed software. It should be open source. If you create something, fine. We would love to sponsor you about it, but it would be even nicer that for example next year you give a lightning talk about it here. Why not? So that we can at least see, okay, somebody did something useful with it and then we are very glad to be part of that. So everything that we gave away now should return to the community. So that's one of the fundamental ideas. Important, we will never pay for people. We will not pay labor hours. We will not pay you for following any training, of course, of education. And commercial programs are out of the question. That's the fundamental ideas. And this is the most important URL for submitting your proposals. We have a special website that will be published right now. It's published, says me. So if you have a proposal, this is the place to be. You can submit it. And this is the process. There are two things that we would like to find. We would like to find members. Members to be a jury, to guide people who submit something, to say, okay, this is okay. This is not okay. You should go in that direction. And then it should be an open community. If you submit something, a proposal, it should be open and in the clear. Why is it accepted? Why is it not accepted? For example, what is missing? And stuff like that. So we need two full people. We need projects, of course. We need also people who act together with us as a jury. That's also interesting, I would say. But the process is the same. You just submit a proposal, an issue at Hitchcock. And somebody from the other members will own the issue. And then it is an open discussion. And well, at the board meetings, probably we will decide how we will do the funding and stuff like that. So we're just starting up. So don't expect that we can give you all the answers today that we are working on it. And one of the things is, I will show you the website. It should be online. Let's refresh it. And here is the website. It was just released by Young for a present. And you can just see here, if you scroll by, what the bit of the history is there, where we came from. You see the ROM's history is there. Well, it's just the initial start of the website. More to follow, of course. But the most important thing is the funding, the OTA. Let's see. Here is the proposal. If you have something, you can submit it over there. And from there we can start. I think, in general, I've discussed everything what's required for this talk. Still have some time left for questions. If there are any questions, please come forward. I will try to answer it. Any questions? In the back is the one. Thanks. Great initiative. On the website it says only for Belgium, not for profit organizations. Also the funding of hosting. I mean, that might limit the scope a bit. Yeah. Initially, we were thinking about sponsoring effect for the Belgian community. But we're still not 100% sure if it's the direction we're going. If there is enough interest or not enough interest, let's say that in Belgium for projects, we can take it outside Belgium, of course. But it is a bit a Belgium organization. That's true. And we would like to see a lot of Belgian projects. But everything is open for discussion, of course. Here you can submit it. Any other questions? No? I would say if you have something, you can always ask the questions towards us as an issue or send a mail afterwards. OK. I still have time left. Still have one question probably. I think it's a very nice initiative. I just was wondering, I couldn't get all the lists.  I think it's sponsored by the European Union. Or some things of this for young people. Well, what we said in the previous slide was that we would not sponsor education as such for your personal reasons. We can support educational programs if it's for a group. Let's say, like a kind of talk, something like that. But not if you say I want to follow in the Java course, for example. No, that's not something that you have to come for us.  Yes, that's a possibility. OK. I hope that's a bit clear. Any other questions? We still have one minute left. So it is your chance, if not. And we thank you for your attention. Thank you very much.

what's going on you guys welcome back welcome back to another video and welcome back to another Tiger Muay Thai vlog today um marks shit how long since I've been back I'm just gonna sit down here guys um it must be about a week and a half since I got back from Thailand yes about a week and a half um today's video I want to discuss injuries because there were a few and there was actually one particular one that I brought back with me from Thailand believe it or not but actually in saying believe it or not you probably would believe it because there's all sorts of bugs and there's not just bugs over there they're super bugs because what I've found is that antibiotics in Thailand are thrown out like candy and what that means is that you know for a bug to overcome antibiotics they need to become a superbug and what I believe I got a couple of days before leaving Thailand was some sort of mosquito bite which usually would come up in a bit of a welt and and go away that didn't happen this bite got worse and worse and basically what I think happened is I scratched it whilst I was in Thailand I must have got some sort of bug in there and then honestly like literally whilst I was flying back which was oh my god that bird just gave me a freaking heart attack whilst I was flying back you know I could see this thing on my leg get worse and worse and worse and worse and I thought what is going on here so I got back to Alice Springs I was extremely worried it was blowing up like a bite it looked like a spider bite I'd had one spider bite in the past and the longer you leave it without doing something about it that the more it's basically just gonna start eating like your flesh right at the end of the day so that's basically what what started happening to me so I got this massive I guess it looked like a boil but at the end of the day something something bad was going on underneath there and so I ended up going to the emergency room you know they took a look at it they gave me some antibiotics and and sent me away they didn't you know take a swab they didn't cut it open nothing like that so I went away I went home all good got antibiotics felt at ease three days go by and take my antibiotics but nothing's happening it's getting worse and worse and worse you know this is because there was an infection under there and they didn't it needed to come out it needed to it needed to be cleaned out so basically it was you know producing this is disgusting but pass and it wasn't stopping coming out it wasn't healing over you know what I mean like on a spider bite it doesn't heal over because there's something underneath it so you need to really clear that out you need to literally cut it open clear that out and then try and let it heal because when you've got a mixture of blood and infection coming out it doesn't heal you need just blood so what happened was after three more days I woke up but actually over those three days progressively this red mark start it's on my it's on my leg by the way here it is right here so this these red marks started slowly creeping up my leg and you know me being sort of a hypochondriac of sorts I thought that this infection which is exactly what it was doing it was spreading up my my veins you know towards my my groin where my what do you call them lymph nodes were swollen as fuck they were so sore and here I am in my brain not really understanding what's going on seeing these fucking red marks slowly but surely come up my leg pains were coming up my legs over those three days and I thought nah man something is going wrong here this infection is gonna fucking infiltrate my heart and I'm gonna be heart attack you know I was really panicking I was panicking big time so I went back in this is you know after being back for four for four days being on the antibiotics for at least three I went back in showed them it and he's like no okay yeah that looks like something's going on we're gonna have to clean that out so that's exactly what they did and anyone with the spider bite or an infected bite will know that's what happens but you know it was it was a little bit scary I suppose but you know the doctor I will say here at the Alice Springs Medical Center put me at ease they numbed it they cut it open they squeezed everything out and then hoped that with another course of antibiotics it would heal and I will say that literally within a couple of hours of them cleaning it out the dull achy pain started going away the red marks started literally you know receding back down my leg and within two more days everything started healing properly and so here I am basically on my last day of antibiotics and I'm not gonna go back into the the hospital because I I do believe that it is healing thank God but basically guys that was that was a little bit of an injury I suppose of sorts that I brought back from Thailand with me and if I hadn't have gone into the the hospital when I did it would have just gotten worse and worse and if I hadn't have gone in a second time and got it cleaned out I don't think it would heal properly so you know listen to your body if you think something's going on go in and get it checked out that would be my recommendation now before these flies go in my mouth or something worse I'm gonna head inside and continue talking in there because one thing I won't miss guys is the fucking flies here in Alice Springs it's ridiculous so anyway I will show you what it's looking like that's it right there as you can see that the skin is like still peeling off from the outside that was a whole lot worse and then up here these you know basically that the I assume the red was inflammation going up my veins towards my towards my towards my I can't remember what they called lymph nodes that's the one okay so and that's what was happening the lymph nodes started swelling because it's fighting and fighting an infection and the infection was spreading up to my lymph nodes and that was the point where I really panicked and I had to go back in and and lucky I did because you know like I said once they cleaned it out it was all good now we're talking about injuries this video is not you know meant to go that long but it probably is look I'm just talking about injuries that I received whilst training in Thailand that one wasn't training related but it was Thailand definitely Thailand related and something that I think you should all be concerned about long behold it happened a couple of days before I was leaving honestly it really started swelling up bad whilst I was traveling so I knew that as soon as I got back to Australia you know I'd go and get it checked out and I'd be in good hands now if I was in Thailand and you know I was having to take antibiotics and stuff I'd be a little concerned you know it's not where you want to be you don't want to be in a country like that where you're sweating all the time there's all these bugs around with open cuts and and I've learnt my lesson to be honest because I had a couple of other cuts on my feet that got infected also but thankfully I don't know I don't know if it's because I took the antibiotics from my other issue but it seemed to help the other cuts as well and so they've sort of healed up now but the main one was was right on the top of my foot right right there and there was another one on the inside of my toe which is finally healed but basically that one on the top of my foot was really was it was bad it was bad to be honest I honestly I can't remember how I did it I think I must have like scraped it along the bottom of a heavy bag or something but it opened up a cut I took a day off training it healed slightly and then I went back to training and I started it like kicking the pads and kicking the bags and and that first day I pushed through the pain basically my first kick it the scab came off right so you got an open cut and I'm doing a Muay Thai class it hurt like fuck but I continued I let it heal over for another day I came back I hit the bag once it fucking hurt the scab didn't come off but I was like no I can't be doing this I can't I can't open it up again or else this will literally never heal and low and behold it fucking never healed I got back to I got back to Australia it's been another week and a half and it's still not healed and I think what happened was you know it was actually quite deep it was a really quite deep cut and I guess usually you might have got a stitch or something like that but what needed to happen was obviously the the tissue needs to start growing from right at the bottom of it and I just never gave it a chance to heal so what I would do next time to you know stop that from even happening in the first place is get some of those ankle and foot sleeves now I never saw them before I started training but I did see a few people with them on and I thought it's gonna protect your foot but I'm tough you know I can I can deal with a few cuts but at the end of the day if you do get a cut and it's not healing properly you have to take care of it and it's gonna put you out of training for days you know if I wanted to continue kicking with this foot I don't know how I was gonna do it except for put one of those sleeves on my foot and I never did but that's definitely a recommendation that I would I would give you another one of my injuries was a some tendonitis in my Achilles tendon which I treated with anti-inflammatories and ice spray which I got from the pharmacy there literally I had the symptoms for 24 hours and then they were gone and I haven't had any since I don't know if that's a bit of bruising that happened or what I mean I was really really surprised with how quickly the pain went away and I was really happy that I actually pushed through that pain to train on the day that it was the worst because you know if I had have had a day off training thinking that this was gonna give me trouble for days and days and then it went away the next day I would have felt cheated I would have thought fuck I just wasted a day of training so I pushed through that one and I also pushed through the one on my foot but it didn't work out too good for me so anti-inflammatories if you do get any sprains or you know anything like that company that accompany that with either an ice pack or some of this ice spray and just continue treating it until until the you know inflammation goes away that seemed to be a really good fix definitely if you do get cuts cover them okay cover them I'm the kind of guy that that doesn't like covering cuts because it doesn't let it you know get air to it doesn't let it dry out I hate doing it but at the end of the day when you've got bugs like that you know going around everywhere and in bacteria and everything like that you should be covering your cuts and so moving forward I definitely do that try and stop them from happening in the first place by wearing the ankle sleeves foot sleeves I don't even know what you call them but they're definitely effective yes the only other thing that really held me back was you know dehydration honestly that's just on you and it was on me and basically guys when you're in a place like that where it's so humid and you're training as well you know it's not easy you're gonna start sweating within a minute and it's not gonna stop until about an hour after you finish so you're sweating buckets and you may not feel thirsty but your body needs that water and basically it's just a matter of you know being on to it throughout the day you've got to continue drinking continue drinking water even when you're not thirsty just keep drinking it because it's gonna catch up to you and you'll wake up in the morning having not drank much water the day before and you'll wake up with a headache and it's like fuck I didn't even drink last night and I've got a headache you're kidding me and basically it's it's just hydration it really is that's that's another thing you've got to keep on top of you can get sachets from the chemist of electrolytes a flavored orange flavor or tropical flavor I only had those in the last few days which is probably my bad you know I was sweating I was sweating a lot but if you're not taking back in those electrolytes and sodium and things like that then you know your body is is gonna be feeling it at the end of the day so that that's important make sure you drink a shitload of water basically you go to 7-eleven you get a 1.5 litre bottle for 14 baht which is 65 cents Australian and you just have those I mean it is a bit of a fuck around having to go down to the shop and buy these big bottles of water and bring them back to your room and put them in the fridge but once you've done it you know there's nothing worse than being in your room and not having any water to drink and you're feeling thirsty and you know you just need that on hand all the time that would be a recommendation and now my last recommendation would be just don't push yourself too hard you know take it easy don't go and and smash yourself with two or three classes on the first day you know I'd say just do one it's a two hour class see how you go literally do one on your first day and on your second day on your third day you can start ramping it up but I'd say on your first and second day just do one make sure you're staying hydrated make sure you've got all the gear that you need and just have fun man have fun embrace it it's an amazing experience I I loved it I loved the trainer that I was working with you know I'm a complete beginner absolute beginner no expectations but yeah it was two and a half weeks of something I've always wanted to do and I definitely definitely tick something off the bucket list whilst there so I'm happy about that and I hope that you've enjoyed the videos I hope that if you are thinking about doing it I hope that you tell me down in the comment section below or hit me up on Instagram my channel is not just about rugby it's not just about bodybuilding it's not just about football it's not just about reactions it's about all sorts of shit it's about me my life what makes me happy what makes me tick and it's about being honest open transparent and bringing my experiences and my thoughts to the world through the power of YouTube and I fucking love it so what do we got injuries my Kelly's tendon that was fine cut on my foot definitely keep it covered or try not to get cut bites make sure you keep them clean and then you probably won't have to deal with what I did but I didn't keep mine clean and so it blew up completely I would say you know health insurance travel insurance I didn't have either okay so I got through it thank God you may not be as as lucky I was riding a scooter the whole entire time I was there I got a motorbike on the second day I rode it with no shoes at times you know I always had my helmet on but at the end of the day man I could have fucked up my foot if I fell off so be safe be happy but I think if you are staying in Thailand around Soitayid Puket Taigamoitai you know you could be training at any of the places along the street there's a multitude of different places but if you are training at Taiga and you are around that area you'll know what kind of vibe it is it's an amazing vibe fitness fighting and the land of smiles and make sure you take your smile because you're gonna need it okay so I'll see in the next one peace out


According to you what are the lessons to be learned from the pandemic when it comes to health crisis management in the EU? We need to strengthen the competencies of the EU to act in times of crisis management like people went to the supermarket and bought a spaghetti and toilet paper just to be on the safe side if something happened. Member states did exactly the same thing at their level. We really have to invest again in healthcare and strengthen the public sector as a whole because that's the one that will lead to resilience if there really is a crisis if we really want to be prepared for another outbreak or second waves and so on. Healthcare providers for instance are the ones that we have been applauding every evening at 8 o'clock in many countries but we have been costing the budgets in the healthcare sector for many many years. What's the commission's initial evaluation regarding this pandemic? Generally I would like to highlight that the commission has reacted to this health crisis not only in the health area but obviously also in the area of economy and border and mobility research there are also several initiatives on fighting this information and you may be familiar already with the exit strategy that it was proposed with the ongoing crisis we have been seeing more and more European solidarity. So countries have been donating materials to each other countries have been accepting patients from each other and that is also a lesson learned this cross-country health system how that can be improved in the crisis situations. If your house burns down and you have to rebuild it, you will not rebuild it with the materials and the methods of 30 years ago you will rebuild it with the eye to the future in a sustainable way and with renewable and new materials and so on. We have to keep repeating it and also telling it to our voters why this is so important.
