- Keynote: Christine Lemmer-Webber
-
Christine has devoted her life to advancing user
freedom. Realizing that the federated social web was fractured by a variety of incompatible
protocols, she co-authored and shepherded ActivityPub’s standardization. She has also
contributed to many other free and open source projects, including co-founding
MediaGoblin.
Christine established the open source Spritely Project to solve known problems in
existing centralized and decentralized social media platforms and to re-imagine the way
we build networked applications - work that now continues at the
Spritely Institute under her guidance as Executive Director.
