Co-host Sponsor Session: Silona Bonewald, Executive Director, IEEE SA OPEN
summary
Argues for a 100% open source platform for academia and government, claiming community control yields long‑term sustainability; demonstrates a containerized BigBlueButton deployment as a concrete example and says an education subgroup proposal defines required features for K–12 and higher education. Calls out gaps beyond Git—hardware, data, reproducibility, identity/badging, and peer review—and points to IEEE SA OPEN’s platform and governance processes as the place where those tools and metrics are being built and vetted.
