SUMMARY:Antifeatures
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Benjamin Mako Hill (MIT Center for Future Civic

functionality that technology developers charge users to not include. F
rom DRM to crippled OSes to digital cameras, I will show off many of the
most egregious antifeatures and describe how open source both makes the

SUMMARY:Embracing Forks: How Git Changes Open Source Contribution
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Tom Preston-Werner (GitHub). Git is a distribut

he way that open source projects accept contributions. By embracing a pa

m changes is reduced, resulting in an explosion of contributors and patc
hes. This talk will use case studies to illustrate how your project can
enjoy these benefits.
