Presentation<\/h2>\n

Mythbusting Documentation – Saturday – September 14 – 11:30<\/h3>\n

“Sales and marketing people know they cannot sell products without
\ndocumentation, but developers and managers often have a different view. The
\nmost common misconceptions about documentation are phrases like “everybody can
\nwrite” or “documentation isn’t technical”, “no one reads it anyhow” and “good
\nsoftware doesn’t need documentation”.
\nThis talk also has a short look on “Agile Documentation” and what a perfect
\ndocumentation writer should look like. And why the developer is the best
\nequipped but least wanted “documentarian”. Trust me, I know what I talk about,
\nI’ve managed documentation at SUSE for the last five years.”<\/em><\/p>\n

How it all started<\/h2>\n

Since school times Markus has been interested in politics and his earliest engagement, a short time with Robin Wood, dates before the internet, in the early nineties.<\/p>\n

During his university studies of geography he got accustomed with
\nLinux and the Open Source philosophy. This is what helped him get involved or
\ninterested in larger, long-term planning and solutions and gave him a more
\nsystematic approach to society or even planetary problems.
\n“I guess that’s how it started, open source is known to spark contribution(s) and thought.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Fighting for a better internet<\/h2>\n

I would like to see a basic human right to live an ad-free life and
\nsurveillance being punished much harder.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Markus believes that things break when corporate interest and advertisement break into new systems. To him, “A better internet” would be something like the 21st century tech, back to what the internet meant in the nineties.
\n“For the conservative right-wing politicians, the internet seems to be a lawless zone, where they don’t have to bother about constitutional rights and privacy. If we build a new one, which I am convinced we will, the next gen internet aka plaNet will be like that. Well, at least if we manage to save our planet first.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Current projects<\/h2>\n

Extinction Rebellion
\n“Act Now We are unprepared for the danger our future holds. We face floods, wildfires,
\nextreme weather, crop failure, mass displacement and the breakdown of society.
\nThe time for denial is over. It is time to act.<\/em>
\n
\nConventional approaches of voting, lobbying, petitions and protest have failed
\nbecause powerful political and economic interests prevent change. Our strategy
\nis therefore one of non-violent, disruptive civil disobedience \u2013 a rebellion.
\nHistorical evidence shows that we need the involvement of 3.5% of the
\npopulation to succeed \u2013 in the UK that\u2019s about 2 million people.”<\/em><\/p>\n

ActivityPub <\/a>
\n“Don’t you miss the days when the web really was the world’s greatest
\ndecentralized network? Before everything got locked down into a handful of
\nwalled gardens? So do we.”<\/em><\/p>\n
