- [**Container craftsmanship: from a Pebble to a ROCK - Interactive Workshop**](https://events.canonical.com/event/31/contributions/228/), Cristovão Cordeiro (Canonical), Sat 11/4, 14:00 EET ([video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDXZxp3aFBY), [slides](https://events.canonical.com/event/31/contributions/228/attachments/132/209/%5Bslidedeck%5D%20Container%20craftsmanship_%20from%20a%20Pebble%20to%20a%20ROCK.pdf), [exercises](https://github.com/cjdcordeiro/pebble-to-rock-workshop)): Right after my workshop there was a workshop for snapcraft-experienced snappers to learn packaging apps in OCI containers using rockcraft. I attended it as this could be a way to create an official OCI container of CUPS, based on the CUPS Snap. And the way how upstream software components are loaded for the container build is exactly the same as with snapcraft, so applying [update automation](https://ubuntu.com/blog/improving-snap-maintenance-with-automation) here would require only modifying a few lines.
- [**Skynet or Star Trek, what’s the future of AI? - Panel session**](https://events.canonical.com/event/31/contributions/266/), Graham Morrison (host, Canonical), Andreea Munteanu (Canonical), Craig Loewen (Microsoft), Frank Karlitschek (Nextcloud), Juan Luis Cano Rodríguez (QuantumBlack, AI by McKinsey), Pablo Ruiz-Múzquiz (Kaleidos/Penpot), Sun 11/5, 9:00 EET ([video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKZ4s-Q5hsQ))
- [**ScaniVerse: A New Horizon in Unified Scanning for Linux Systems**](https://events.canonical.com/event/31/contributions/192/) Akarshan Kapoor (Indian Institute of Technology, Mandi, India), Sun 11/5, 11:30 EET ([video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAeUseU35Cc)): Akarshan presenting [his GSoC work](https://dev.to/kappuccino111/sandboxing-scanners-a-leap-into-the-driverless-realm-gsoc-23-report-3eci) of this year in his own, special style. I have been in his talk especially also to help answering questions and I have remarked in the end that one should be careful with making the MetaScan frontend send the user's Scan to external internet services for analysis, for privacy reasons.
- [**Bringing Windows applications to Linux app stores**](https://events.canonical.com/event/31/contributions/240/), Merlijn Sebrechts (Ubuntu Community Council, Snapcrafters), Sun 11/5, 12:00 EET: WINE allows to run many Windows apps under Linux but needs some configuration and setup work. To make it easy for end users to simply grab Windows apps in the Snap Store, there is Sommelier, which this talk was about.
- [**Bringing Windows applications to Linux app stores**](https://events.canonical.com/event/31/contributions/240/), Merlijn Sebrechts (Ubuntu Community Council, Snapcrafters), Sun 11/5, 12:00 EET ([video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Huehkbs8W9U)): WINE allows to run many Windows apps under Linux but needs some configuration and setup work. To make it easy for end users to simply grab Windows apps in the Snap Store, there is Sommelier, which this talk was about. I asked Merlijn what about having a "app loader" Snaps using Somellier which do not contain the (often proprietary) app but just load it from the Windows file system to run it uner Linux. He told that this is already possible, especially with Bottles and Lutris ([31:48 min](https://youtu.be/Huehkbs8W9U?si=rTxRus8ApxhWL7xG&t=1908)).
- [**Behind the Scenes of tox: The Journey of Rewriting a Python Tool with Over 10 Million Monthly Downloads**](https://events.canonical.com/event/31/contributions/272/), Jürgen Gmach (Canonical), Sun 11/5, 14:30 EET ([video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4WDp8rQPZA)): Jürgen is nearly as long into free software as me, I started with SUSE 5.1 in 1997, he two years later with SUSE 7.0.
- [**Linux Lads live podcast recording**](https://events.canonical.com/event/31/contributions/357/), Shane, Mike, Conor, and Amolith (Linux Lads Podcast), Sun 11/5, 16:00 EET: This was great, the [Linux Lads podcast](https://linuxlads.com/) produced live with audience interaction. I have taken a first-class seat (first row), with these signs "content creators only", but hey, this news post is content, and my talks and workshops on conferences, too, and so I was close to them and contributed, now I am eager to see the show getting published for listening ...
