WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:13.840
Okay, the next talk is up and it's here in Karees and Luis Vineras on Lupos, the French

00:13.840 --> 00:15.680
government's sovereign cloud.

00:15.680 --> 00:17.880
Welcome, and the stage is yours.

00:17.880 --> 00:18.880
Thanks Felix.

00:18.880 --> 00:24.680
Thanks everyone for joining today, I know it's second day of first time, so it's more

00:24.680 --> 00:25.680
difficult.

00:25.680 --> 00:30.480
We'll talk about digital sovereignty and not just about the importance of doing it, but

00:30.480 --> 00:36.160
more practical example of people doing it today using open source solutions.

00:36.160 --> 00:42.040
So Luis is going to co-present with me, is a master student in European affairs at

00:42.040 --> 00:47.560
Cionspo Paris, also an apprentice at the Public Finance General Directorate at the French

00:47.560 --> 00:54.160
Finance Ministry, and the Labour IT Association co-founder and president, Labour IT is a group

00:54.160 --> 01:00.600
that's trying to increase the option of open source in student activities, I think.

01:00.600 --> 01:04.640
And my name is Tirek Karees, I'm the General Manager for the Open Infra Foundation, which is

01:04.640 --> 01:08.240
the Stuart behind the Open Stock Project.

01:08.240 --> 01:12.800
I'm also the Vice Chair of the Open Source Initiative, the body that defends the open source

01:12.800 --> 01:19.080
definition, and I've been a really manager for Open Stock for the last 15 years, so that's

01:19.080 --> 01:27.660
why I'm helping giving some extra context to this project, because Nubo is based on an

01:27.660 --> 01:34.200
open stack cloud, and so I wanted to give a quick history of why Open Stock plays a role

01:34.200 --> 01:36.240
in digital sovereignty.

01:36.240 --> 01:41.480
So Open Stock is an openly developed open source solution for cloud software, basically

01:41.480 --> 01:45.720
if you want to provide infrastructure, if you want to do what Amazon web service or Google

01:45.720 --> 01:50.400
compute cloud does, there is open source software that's available out there to help you

01:50.400 --> 01:51.400
do it.

01:51.400 --> 01:57.480
It's developed by a global community, actually more than 50% of our recent activity over

01:57.480 --> 02:03.320
the past two years is coming out of Europe and the Middle East Africa and for only 20%

02:03.320 --> 02:10.520
in North America and 30% in the Asia Pacific region, and you might have heard that Kubernetes

02:10.520 --> 02:15.400
killed Open Stock or made it to relevant, the reality is that it actually reinforced

02:15.400 --> 02:22.240
Open Stock because Kubernetes provides a really nice way to abstract the infrastructure

02:22.240 --> 02:28.120
and deploy containerized applications, and so if you want to do that on top of Amazon web

02:28.120 --> 02:32.320
services, you can do that with Kubernetes as well, and if you want to do that on top of

02:32.320 --> 02:36.720
Open Stock Trif and Resources, you can do that as well, so that actually put Open Stock

02:36.720 --> 02:40.000
more on the map than you just tried it.

02:40.000 --> 02:44.440
In terms of Open Stock today, we're actually celebrating the 15th birthday this year, it's

02:44.440 --> 02:49.560
really the edge of maturity, so it's bit like the Linux kernel, mostly new developments

02:49.560 --> 02:55.160
is driven by new advancement in hardware capabilities or new type of workloads that need

02:55.160 --> 03:01.120
to be enabled through technologies accessible to all.

03:01.120 --> 03:05.320
For the past year, we've seen three key trends that drive a lot of new adoption for

03:05.320 --> 03:06.720
Open Infrastructure.

03:06.720 --> 03:12.680
The first one is clearly AI, like everyone has been hearing about it by now, it requires

03:12.680 --> 03:18.280
a lot of new capacity, new accelerated capacity, and so people that are deploying that

03:18.280 --> 03:24.080
capacity today are using software that's only available to do that.

03:24.080 --> 03:29.800
There's also a lot of people that are escaping the VMware new aggressive licensing since

03:30.000 --> 03:35.320
Vortcom both VMware, people have been receiving invoices that could be tenfold what

03:35.320 --> 03:41.200
they used to pay, and so clearly those people are climbing up to find solutions, and for

03:41.200 --> 03:45.800
the most adventurous that also wanted to drive a cloud transformation more of a programmable

03:45.800 --> 03:50.840
approach to infrastructure, Open Stock is there as an option, and the third driver, which

03:50.840 --> 03:55.520
is why we're here today, is digital sovereignty.

03:56.520 --> 04:02.000
Well, there is a clear need today more than ever for local infrastructure.

04:02.000 --> 04:09.680
It's clear that we need programmable computing infrastructure to sustain our software

04:09.680 --> 04:17.080
driven economy, and that means we need access to resources that you can access programmatically

04:17.080 --> 04:18.920
with cloud APIs.

04:19.000 --> 04:26.480
At the same time, this is only offered, or mostly offered by US or China-based providers.

04:26.480 --> 04:34.320
So how do we get that access without being vulnerable to weaponizing access?

04:34.320 --> 04:41.160
Like tomorrow, the new US president could just say, well, it's illegal for Amazon

04:41.160 --> 04:47.880
web service to continue delivering services in your what then, like how much of our economy

04:47.880 --> 04:48.880
is going to crumble.

04:48.880 --> 04:53.240
We need to build that local capacity today, because even if it doesn't do it, it will

04:53.240 --> 04:59.960
use it in threats to drive some, or as a way to negotiate something else, and we'll have

04:59.960 --> 05:04.240
to give in on something else, because it doesn't push the button.

05:04.240 --> 05:10.160
We also need, even without taking like this step, which used to be crazy now, not that

05:10.160 --> 05:11.160
crazy.

05:11.160 --> 05:14.880
You also need to resiliency against State Actual Espionage.

05:14.880 --> 05:20.080
There is low in the US that allows the government to actually force any US-based company

05:20.080 --> 05:24.480
to disclose information that's about foreign industry.

05:24.480 --> 05:29.920
So there is ends that has been used for State Actual Espionage by the US by China, and

05:29.920 --> 05:32.640
for anything that's localized there.

05:32.640 --> 05:36.800
So even for our industry, it's very important that we have this local capacity.

05:36.800 --> 05:43.200
And finally, even without the current geopolitical trouble, we have very progressive privacy

05:43.200 --> 05:48.200
laws in the EU, it's very important that our data is protected by our laws, and that

05:48.200 --> 05:55.200
needs our data needs to be stored in the jurisdictions where that law applies, otherwise

05:55.200 --> 06:00.640
we just lose this benefit of living in the EU.

06:00.640 --> 06:01.640
So why open source?

06:01.640 --> 06:05.320
Why open source helps with this goal of building local infrastructure?

06:05.320 --> 06:10.440
Well, it has several properties that are very interesting, availability, it's the fact

06:10.440 --> 06:16.680
that using open source software, you actually have permission as access to that technology.

06:16.680 --> 06:18.320
You don't need to ask anyone for permission.

06:18.320 --> 06:24.120
You don't need to have the permission of the US government before using open source.

06:24.120 --> 06:25.400
So you can just take it.

06:25.400 --> 06:33.640
There is independence, the fact that it's provided by a collection of participants, open

06:33.680 --> 06:38.120
level by your wide community of organizations.

06:38.120 --> 06:42.040
That gives you, you don't have a dependency on a specific actor.

06:42.040 --> 06:48.600
You don't buy it from one company, which could be influenced in doing something else.

06:48.600 --> 06:52.400
So you have this independence, you have this transparency, the governance is very open,

06:52.400 --> 06:55.400
every discussion is happening in the.

06:55.400 --> 07:01.360
So it was in the 2008 economic crisis, the governments proposed the symbols package called

07:01.400 --> 07:05.920
investment plan for the future and within that plan had many different objectives.

07:05.920 --> 07:11.600
Couple of them were to modernize and industrialize the state-friendly hosting infrastructures

07:11.600 --> 07:17.680
of the state and industrialize also computing environments for the state IT teams.

07:17.680 --> 07:23.760
All of that obviously needed to meet the needs of security and resilience, be interministerial

07:23.760 --> 07:29.480
by default and enhance state sovereignty.

07:29.480 --> 07:34.600
With these objectives in mind, a team, which was then we taken by Rune Shaya, who is now

07:34.600 --> 07:39.640
the current director and founder of the new project, they proposed the two projects.

07:39.640 --> 07:46.360
So the first part is a set of tooling to create an open source cloud, meaning management

07:46.360 --> 07:51.360
industrial scale, cloud infrastructure, so provisions to VM, buildings, as well as upgrades

07:51.360 --> 07:53.080
without downtime.

07:53.080 --> 07:57.480
And they insisted that those tooling needed to be based on free software and specifically

07:57.480 --> 08:00.840
community divisions of the free software and welcome back to that a bit later.

08:00.840 --> 08:05.240
The second part of the project was an interministerial hosting offer, obviously based on the

08:05.240 --> 08:12.200
open source cloud tools so that other public administration can consume pay as you go resources

08:12.200 --> 08:19.160
and benefit from the industrial scale security and customer support that we have at Kibo.

08:19.160 --> 08:22.520
That's a quick rundown on the milestones, I won't get into the details, I just want you to

08:23.160 --> 08:30.680
remember two key dates, the first production set up of the first platform in July 2018,

08:30.680 --> 08:35.800
and then the customer portal and sender of excellence in November 2019.

08:35.800 --> 08:41.640
Also notable is the four major open-secret rates thanks to Kula Ansible

08:41.640 --> 08:44.680
through the span of several years.

08:46.920 --> 08:50.760
The offer assistance today, we have two independent and autonomous sites.

08:50.840 --> 08:56.920
Within each site, we have two platforms, one is exposed to the internet, the other is exposed

08:56.920 --> 09:02.760
to the internal network of the state area and within the two platforms, you have two

09:02.760 --> 09:04.120
availability zones.

09:05.960 --> 09:08.680
We deploy all those open-secret components.

09:09.560 --> 09:16.040
We also do observability through open source components and last but not least, we have the

09:16.040 --> 09:20.520
customer portal for onboarding and support, which is quite important.

09:21.720 --> 09:28.040
When it comes to the numbers, we have about 450 projects, about 2,000 tenants and lot more

09:28.680 --> 09:34.520
VMs and VZPs, all that is serving daily 15 different public administrations.

09:35.320 --> 09:40.840
And it keeps growing so much so that now we have a new offer named Kibo, which is a

09:40.840 --> 09:46.200
named space as a service software, so it's based on Kubernetes and Pluster API.

09:46.200 --> 09:50.040
And as Terry said, Kibo can be inside open-sec and that's what we're doing.

09:50.760 --> 09:57.720
It's a Kibo, the offer is a whole tenants inside open-sec and using the the new

09:57.720 --> 09:58.760
ball APIs.

09:59.960 --> 10:05.960
Now let's talk about the Terry talk about free software and the sovereignty behind it.

10:06.360 --> 10:11.720
Let's see how free software can really be the chosen path for sovereignty.

10:12.280 --> 10:16.760
Before that, I just want you to make a distinction between product and project.

10:16.760 --> 10:21.560
I made this distinction, thanks to Bestangiri, maybe you know him.

10:21.560 --> 10:25.000
I urge you to read this blog post about it, it's in French, but it's great.

10:25.560 --> 10:26.680
So basically, we have two things.

10:28.440 --> 10:29.320
We have two things.

10:29.320 --> 10:34.040
We have the products, the products is just the source code and the license and the license dictates

10:34.040 --> 10:35.720
how you can use the source code.

10:35.720 --> 10:39.400
In some cases, the documentation is also part of the product.

10:39.400 --> 10:43.000
For example, the Apache license, the documentation is part of it.

10:43.000 --> 10:44.440
And the product is everything else.

10:44.440 --> 10:50.760
So it's maintenance, it's support, it's built pipelines, it's PR's emergency issues and so on.

10:50.760 --> 10:51.480
It's everything else.

10:52.440 --> 10:57.080
And that's very important to make the distinction, I believe, because then we can make a

10:57.080 --> 10:59.480
difference between formal freedoms and real freedoms.

11:00.040 --> 11:04.840
And using free software for the state cloud, the sovereignty,

11:04.840 --> 11:06.520
using it as a product.

11:06.520 --> 11:10.040
So meaning we only care about the code and the license behind it.

11:10.040 --> 11:12.840
It enables us to have the four essential freedoms,

11:12.840 --> 11:16.440
which enables us transparency over the code that we use,

11:16.440 --> 11:17.400
taken over the product.

11:18.040 --> 11:21.640
So one answer would be, well, maintain your own fortune,

11:21.640 --> 11:24.360
but we use way too many products.

11:24.360 --> 11:27.800
And so that's not feasible and it's not desirable.

11:27.880 --> 11:30.680
We want to pull resources with free software, not separate them.

11:31.800 --> 11:34.280
And that's where the community versions of free software really

11:34.280 --> 11:36.280
shines for digital sovereignty.

11:36.280 --> 11:41.000
Because they allow us the possibility to take part of the contribution,

11:41.000 --> 11:43.320
the collaboration, and the governance process.

11:43.320 --> 11:50.120
And that's how we can better control how the project is handles

11:50.120 --> 11:51.320
when we participate in it.

11:52.600 --> 11:55.960
If we do that, though, then we need to internalize competencies, obviously.

11:56.920 --> 12:00.600
But that's, at the French Finance Ministry,

12:00.600 --> 12:03.960
we're quite lucky because they have been doing so for quite a long time.

12:03.960 --> 12:07.000
And it's one of the largest information system of Europe.

12:07.880 --> 12:09.640
So that's a great thing.

12:09.640 --> 12:12.680
And obviously, digital professor internalized competencies

12:12.680 --> 12:13.880
rather than licenses.

12:13.880 --> 12:17.880
So from the 2000s, early 2000s, as you can see,

12:17.880 --> 12:21.800
they have developed skills mainly if not exclusively

12:21.800 --> 12:25.000
based on free software about virtualization and so on.

12:25.000 --> 12:28.360
And as you can see also, they chose a possible skill

12:28.360 --> 12:30.280
over Oracle for the databases.

12:32.040 --> 12:35.000
We haven't given a definition yet of sovereignty.

12:35.000 --> 12:37.640
It is one of the most controversial ideas in political science

12:37.640 --> 12:41.160
and international law, but I'll try to give it a shot

12:41.160 --> 12:44.200
in the context of a state platform.

12:44.200 --> 12:48.600
So if sovereignty refers to the ultimate authority in the decision-making process

12:49.640 --> 12:51.320
or the state and in the maintenance of order,

12:51.320 --> 12:53.800
then in the context of the state cloud, I define it

12:53.800 --> 12:57.160
as a computing environment that is owned, controlled,

12:57.160 --> 12:59.320
and operated by the state.

12:59.320 --> 13:01.880
That way, as Terry said, we can ensure that the data

13:01.880 --> 13:05.720
and services are satisfactory and regulated by

13:05.720 --> 13:08.200
or own laws and only all laws.

13:10.280 --> 13:13.000
At that's different, and contrary to just mere independence.

13:14.120 --> 13:17.640
Obviously, you can control the infrastructure of AWS cloud,

13:17.640 --> 13:20.360
but you do not own it and you do not operate it.

13:20.360 --> 13:22.200
And I'm not even mentioning the US cloud

13:22.200 --> 13:24.600
Ag material is talking about.

13:24.600 --> 13:25.720
Even OV is clouded.

13:25.720 --> 13:26.440
You don't own it.

13:26.440 --> 13:27.800
You don't operate it.

13:27.800 --> 13:29.320
The company can go out of business.

13:29.320 --> 13:29.960
You don't have it.

13:29.960 --> 13:33.640
That's what we need local free software to have full sovereignty.

13:35.000 --> 13:37.800
So where are we going from here?

13:37.800 --> 13:39.480
That's the conclusion.

13:39.480 --> 13:41.800
First of all, we want you to thank the new boat project

13:41.800 --> 13:45.640
wants to thank the grid community for the past 20 years.

13:45.640 --> 13:48.520
Free software has given a lot of benefits and independence.

13:49.320 --> 13:50.760
And that's great.

13:50.840 --> 13:53.640
We have contributed to renewable to open the Swiss Open

13:53.640 --> 13:55.160
Stackman HQ and so on.

13:55.160 --> 13:59.320
Luckily, though, it's a bit more difficult due to the migration

13:59.320 --> 14:00.600
of the central SDBN.

14:00.600 --> 14:04.760
So we're lagging a bit behind the OpenStacker latest updates.

14:04.760 --> 14:08.040
So contributing relevant patches is a bit more complex.

14:09.000 --> 14:13.480
Looking ahead, though, we have the Cuba offer that was talking about.

14:13.480 --> 14:16.280
That's a cluster API in Kubernetes distribution

14:16.280 --> 14:17.800
that we want to open source.

14:17.800 --> 14:19.160
So that's coming up.

14:19.160 --> 14:23.240
And we are committed to increasing or contribution both

14:23.240 --> 14:25.480
internally with the genome.

14:25.480 --> 14:28.760
I don't know if anyone here from the genome here is here.

14:28.760 --> 14:31.080
So that's what we're going to do.

14:31.080 --> 14:34.840
And also externally by sharing our expertise and contributing

14:34.840 --> 14:36.200
back to the projects.

14:37.720 --> 14:39.160
And that's about it.

14:39.160 --> 14:40.520
So thank you for your attention.

14:40.760 --> 14:45.480
APPLAUSE

14:45.480 --> 14:46.200
Questions?

14:46.200 --> 14:47.880
No?

14:47.880 --> 14:48.680
Questions?

14:48.680 --> 14:49.480
Questions?

14:49.480 --> 14:50.440
All right.

14:50.440 --> 14:51.400
Well, we have time for questions.

14:51.400 --> 14:51.880
So.

14:51.880 --> 14:52.680
Right timing.

14:52.680 --> 14:54.680
Yeah, thanks.

14:54.680 --> 14:59.480
Do you aim to provide a higher security

14:59.480 --> 15:01.480
application and good infrastructure?

15:01.480 --> 15:03.960
And do you, uh, like, what's, sorry?

15:04.040 --> 15:07.960
Uh, there is a, uh, no, hopefully,

15:07.960 --> 15:10.600
the qualification, which is called, uh,

15:10.600 --> 15:11.400
was not there.

15:11.400 --> 15:12.440
Ah, yeah, okay.

15:12.440 --> 15:15.400
Which is required for high, uh, the federal security.

15:15.400 --> 15:18.200
Uh, do you aim to provide it in a way?

15:18.200 --> 15:19.960
And the second question, uh,

15:19.960 --> 15:21.960
the world is allowed to do,

15:21.960 --> 15:23.960
which is, uh, for the, uh,

15:23.960 --> 15:25.960
you have to do something.

15:25.960 --> 15:27.960
Uh, no, no, I don't focus on that.

15:27.960 --> 15:29.000
Okay.

15:29.000 --> 15:29.800
Uh, okay.

15:29.800 --> 15:32.440
So, um, just if you need to, uh,

15:32.440 --> 15:33.560
she's my boss.

15:33.560 --> 15:34.840
Can you repeat the question?

15:34.840 --> 15:35.160
Okay.

15:35.160 --> 15:41.160
So the question is, um, um,

15:41.160 --> 15:43.240
do we plan on having, uh,

15:43.240 --> 15:44.760
division on this country, which is a high,

15:44.760 --> 15:46.280
it's a qualification for security.

15:46.280 --> 15:48.440
And also do we work with the club peer, right?

15:48.440 --> 15:50.040
So, as I was saying, saying,

15:50.040 --> 15:50.600
she's my boss.

15:50.600 --> 15:53.080
I'm, uh, I'm, uh, I've been here for just, uh,

15:53.080 --> 15:53.800
a few months.

15:53.800 --> 15:56.680
So maybe, uh, I don't want to say anything bad.

15:56.680 --> 15:59.960
Um, that's like, just this lemme, uh,

15:59.960 --> 16:01.880
we don't have the division on this country.

16:01.880 --> 16:04.680
Yes, not yet, but we're planning on having it.

16:04.680 --> 16:07.400
We have a set of qualification for security, uh,

16:07.400 --> 16:11.320
it's, um, which is mainly based on the second-plad, uh,

16:11.320 --> 16:12.120
qualification.

16:12.120 --> 16:13.080
It's not second-plad.

16:13.080 --> 16:14.680
We're also planning on having that.

16:14.680 --> 16:17.080
And, uh, we want to work with,

16:17.080 --> 16:20.440
with the, we work with the club peer,

16:20.440 --> 16:23.400
with club peer, uh, yeah, that's it.

16:23.400 --> 16:24.840
She's also another stack plan.

16:24.840 --> 16:27.160
Which is also, also an open stack plan.

16:29.560 --> 16:30.360
Any other question?

16:32.440 --> 16:33.480
Oh, way too many.

16:33.480 --> 16:34.200
He was first.

16:36.200 --> 16:38.760
Well, I was doing, but you had quite a lot of evidence

16:38.760 --> 16:40.680
in the heart situation, you know, more and more.

16:40.680 --> 16:42.600
How do you, how did you get the report,

16:42.600 --> 16:43.880
so you can divide what to,

16:43.880 --> 16:45.960
would I, uh, do you have the money?

16:45.960 --> 16:47.800
For the public and research, you mean?

16:48.600 --> 16:51.640
Um, I think it's also, uh, yeah, repeat the question.

16:51.640 --> 16:55.320
Um, how did we get so many tenants and projects in the cloud

16:55.320 --> 16:55.640
new book?

16:56.440 --> 16:59.720
Uh, I think one of the key things is

17:00.680 --> 17:03.400
the, uh, have you heard about the,

17:03.400 --> 17:04.440
the, the cloud doctrine?

17:05.240 --> 17:06.040
Maybe not.

17:06.040 --> 17:09.080
The cloud doctrine is, uh, the stake doctrine that now says,

17:09.080 --> 17:11.720
well, IT teams should use cloud infrastructures

17:11.720 --> 17:14.520
and on how their own local production

17:14.520 --> 17:15.400
things and everything.

17:15.400 --> 17:18.360
And because we're also very intermanuously and open,

17:18.360 --> 17:21.240
it's, it's, it's quite easy to get people to, to come in.

17:21.880 --> 17:22.280
Yep.

17:25.560 --> 17:29.560
What's the range of current different physicality

17:29.560 --> 17:32.360
projects, what do you have, what do you do structure,

17:32.360 --> 17:36.120
and how do you hide and in a situation like someone said,

17:36.120 --> 17:39.560
yeah, that's really interesting, but not project as two specials

17:39.560 --> 17:41.960
to get one to, uh, like five cities in his direction.

17:43.240 --> 17:44.440
Can you repeat the question?

17:44.440 --> 17:47.240
Yeah, no, you, uh, no, me,

17:47.240 --> 17:49.880
but, uh, simple version of the question.

17:49.880 --> 17:52.520
How do you come across situations where people have said,

17:52.520 --> 17:56.040
um, uh, our project is two specials

17:56.920 --> 17:57.560
two specials.

17:57.560 --> 17:58.600
Okay, here is two reason.

17:58.600 --> 17:59.720
Oh, yeah.

18:01.000 --> 18:02.280
How have you dealt with that?

18:04.280 --> 18:06.440
All right, uh, yeah, that happened.

18:06.440 --> 18:08.840
Uh, so the question is, uh,

18:08.840 --> 18:10.840
project that come into Nubo and say,

18:10.840 --> 18:13.240
is the, uh, our project is two specials,

18:13.240 --> 18:16.680
or requires too many security qualifications so on.

18:16.680 --> 18:18.040
Um, it happened.

18:18.040 --> 18:23.480
Um, basically what we did is they still tried, uh,

18:23.480 --> 18:27.480
the, opens the, the Nubo APIs for the project,

18:27.480 --> 18:29.160
by, because they're developing it,

18:29.160 --> 18:31.960
and also because we're working in parallel

18:31.960 --> 18:34.840
to get the security qualifications.

18:34.840 --> 18:37.960
So by the, by the time that their project is ready,

18:37.960 --> 18:39.160
we may have the qualification.

18:54.440 --> 18:59.640
Uh, how to tell the finance ministry to,

18:59.640 --> 19:02.760
to use an open-sac platform, basically.

19:04.120 --> 19:04.760
Yeah.

19:04.760 --> 19:06.120
Another finance ministry.

19:06.120 --> 19:07.480
Another finance ministry.

19:07.480 --> 19:14.120
Uh, uh, I don't have enough, uh, hindsight on the Nubo project,

19:14.120 --> 19:15.960
uh, right now, so I won't be able to tell it.

19:15.960 --> 19:17.480
Maybe you can say something about it.

19:19.480 --> 19:22.680
They're like open-sac clouds being used in other, uh,

19:22.760 --> 19:24.040
some other European countries.

19:24.040 --> 19:27.320
The problem is, like, I discovered the Nubo project by accident,

19:27.320 --> 19:28.680
by a LinkedIn post saying,

19:28.680 --> 19:30.280
oh, we did that with OpenStack.

19:30.280 --> 19:32.840
So some, and I live in France and I pay my taxes.

19:32.840 --> 19:38.360
Uh, and so I, like, it's sometimes super difficult to uncover.

19:38.360 --> 19:39.240
Government activity.

19:39.240 --> 19:41.640
There's a bit of a nickel chamber within the government.

19:41.640 --> 19:44.680
Might be well known, but outside, there is no, uh,

19:44.680 --> 19:49.320
it's not as actively public, or engaging as publicly as,

19:49.320 --> 19:53.880
and it's was great to see, uh, you all, uh, really, uh,

19:53.880 --> 19:57.080
starting talking about it, because that's really, uh,

19:57.080 --> 19:59.960
all of us to have that conversation and this presentation.

19:59.960 --> 20:01.960
And I feel like we know of other governments

20:01.960 --> 20:03.560
that are a deep learning of OpenStack clouds,

20:03.560 --> 20:06.600
but sometimes, um, they don't tell us.

20:06.600 --> 20:08.520
So it's, we're, I know, Estonia, I know,

20:08.520 --> 20:12.120
some of some in Italy, but it's super difficult to track where they are at,

20:12.120 --> 20:14.200
and because they don't communicate at all.

20:14.200 --> 20:15.720
And so it's super difficult.

20:15.720 --> 20:18.120
Maybe, maybe I can just add a few things.

20:18.280 --> 20:19.800
Um, those pose.

20:20.840 --> 20:21.880
Public, those pose.

20:21.880 --> 20:23.160
Open source program office.

20:23.160 --> 20:24.760
That's also a way to go.

20:24.760 --> 20:27.560
Uh, I don't know the, oh, yeah, yeah, I was,

20:34.040 --> 20:34.840
exactly.

20:34.840 --> 20:39.240
And also the, the, also the, the presentations just before us.

20:39.240 --> 20:40.680
I don't know if they're still here.

20:40.680 --> 20:41.480
That's about it.

20:41.480 --> 20:44.360
Like, trying to get the public and research,

20:44.360 --> 20:46.360
should be public about what they're doing.

20:46.440 --> 20:48.840
That's, uh, that's a, a huge work.

20:48.840 --> 20:51.320
And friends is part of a precursor on that, actually.

20:53.960 --> 20:57.800
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

20:57.800 --> 20:58.600
Come to Fausem as well.

21:05.160 --> 21:06.520
So can you speak louder, please?

21:09.480 --> 21:09.880
Yep.

21:10.520 --> 21:16.280
For the distribution of the open source,

21:16.280 --> 21:17.720
we don't have yet to line line.

21:17.720 --> 21:19.240
Yep, it's working on it.

21:19.960 --> 21:20.920
Ah, repeat the question.

21:21.800 --> 21:24.280
Is the, is the Cuba distribution?

21:24.280 --> 21:26.680
Do we have a timeline for the Cuba distribution?

21:26.680 --> 21:28.280
And now it, time's up.

21:28.280 --> 21:29.800
So thank you very much for your questions.
