On August 15th, Prof. Dr. Rainer Herpers and our team international Nadine Kutz and Jana Schiewe welcomed more than 25 members of our international projects OPEN and OSSCOM.
Our partners from Jordan, Lebanon and Morocco spent the whole week at the Sankt Augustin Campus.
On day 1 the whole group took part in various workshops on open source related issues such as the Go programming language. The second day was spent at the university's business campus, where students and recent graduates get the opportunity to found their own company and receive competent help as well as office space at reasonable rates. Our visitors found the concept very inspiring and are working on similar settings for their respective institutions.
Days 3 and 4 were busy with separate consortium meetings and project-related paperwork. As a special highlight, the group took part in the 12. Free and Open Source Software Conference FroSCon which was held at the Sankt Augustin Campus on saturday and sunday. Click here for conference picture gallery.
Both projects will finish at the end of 2017. However, the OPEN group is already preparing an application for additional funding.
