Hi,
I'd like to propose a talk for the upcoming MiniDebConf in Toulouse:
* Speaker: Arnaud Ferraris
* Speaker location: Toulouse
* Affiliation: Debian & Mobian (https://mobian.org)
* Topic: Trixie on mobile: are we there yet?
Over the past few years, both Linux-first mobile devices and a growing
number of mainline-supported Android smartphones have triggered the
interest of many Linux developers and users.
The resulting ecosystem is growing rapidly, with the DebianOnMobile team
ensuring mobile-friendly software made their way into Debian.
The Trixie release approaching, this talk will detail the state of
mobile support in Bookworm, how things evolved since then and the
remaining hurdles to get full support of those devices in Debian.
* Date/time: no preference
* Language: English
* Biography:
Arnaud is a Debian Developer mainly active in the DebianOnMobile team,
working towards making mobile-friendly software available in Debian:
- essential middleware (ModemManager)
- graphical environments (Phosh, Plasma Mobile...)
- mobile-first applications
He also maintains Mobian, a Debian derivative providing packages not
ready for Debian yet (mostly apps/kernels with downstream patches) and
device-specific tweaks and metapackages, as well as ready-to-flash disk
images for a selection of supported devices.
* Duration: depends on Q&A time inclusion
- 20mins if additional time is available for Q&A (e.g. 20mins
presentation + 10mins Q&A)
- 40mins otherwise
Best regards,
Arnaud

PyPI Security: Past, Present & Future

The talk is about how authentication for developers works on pypi.
It shows how the authentication evolved over time and ends with predictions/
conspiracy theories on what will happen in the future.
I presented it at OWASP Göteborg last spring, but it will include some new
material that happened after then.
> The choice between 20 or 40 minutes duration
40 minutes I think would be more appropriate

Hi,
I want to propose a talk or BoF or something in between about cross
building Debian packages. I've done this at DebConf 22 very
spontaneously as a Q&A BoF format. In Toulouse, I want to given an
introduction to the matter to the uninitiated and then move into the
hairy details. What is cross building? Why is cross building useful?
How can one cross build packages? What tends to work and what does not?
In what situations is cross building beneficial? How can one fix things
when it does not work? Unlike Kosovo, I'll come with slides for the
first half and want to leave plenty of room for questions. I'll try to
collect some questions ahead of time in case the audience is too shy.
If this is getting videoed, multiple microphones will be needed. Please
let me know if the unconventional proposal suits the conference. If not,
I will to consider changes to the format and topic.
Below goes the requested information.
Speaker name: Helmut Grohne
Travel budget: not to be compensated via the conference
Affiliation: I'm a Debian Developer
Duration and date: 40min during the weekend
Video recording: agreed
Language: English
Registered: yes (currently row 20)
Biography
After starting to contribute to Debian in 2005 it took me until 2013 to
formally become a Debian Developer. I tend to not maintain packages as I
am invested in architecture bootstrap, cross building, and other
archive-wide topics. Since 2022 I am serving on the technical committee
and working with Freexian who is funding my work on finalizing the
/usr-merge transition.
Please cc me in replies as I am not subscribed.
Helmut
