Xen Summit 2026

by Xen Project

Xen Summit is the annual gathering of the Xen Project community, and the 2026 edition runs for three days at the HEADS office in Aschheim, just east of Munich, hosted by Renesas. Two days of technical talks are followed by a third day given over entirely to design sessions, which are working sessions where contributors settle architecture, implementation plans and project direction face to face rather than sit through presentations. The published programme leans heavily on embedded and automotive virtualization, with talks on Xen on Renesas R-Car Gen5 silicon, mixed-criticality workloads, thermal management and the path toward safety certification, alongside a cloud and infrastructure track covering XCP-ng, XenServer nested virtualization and per-guest resource management. Other sessions cover Xen on RISC-V, Arm VHE-always hardware, formal methods, secure inter-domain communication over Argo, and compliance work against DO-178C and IEC 62443. The audience is Xen developers and maintainers, embedded and automotive engineers, cloud and infrastructure practitioners, researchers and students. The summit is hybrid, with standard in-person registration at $200 and a $20 rate for academics and for virtual attendance, plus a community social dinner on the evening of 16 September.

Consul Conference 2026: Munich

Expect demo runs, workshops on devising participation processes and empowering citizens in cities and regions in Europe, Latin America and Africa, sessions on open source technology and digital public goods, and keynotes about the democratic potential of it all. The programme runs in four tracks: practical deep dive, improving participation, open source and open gov, and an afternoon with AI, alongside a software developer special on contributing to the CONSUL codebase. Keynotes come from Roman Huber (Mehr Demokratie), Sophie Bloemen (Commons Network) and Joe Mathews (Democracy Local). Day one is at Flux Munich; days two and three are hosted by the city of Munich at Agnes-Pockels-Bogen 33. Tickets are donation-based.

Open Skills Consortium – Konstituierendes Forum Dresden

by Open Skills Consortium / SupraTix GmbH

The constituent forum of the Open Skills Consortium is not a traditional conference but a joint working start. Companies, education providers, universities, chambers, recognition bodies, professional associations, labour market institutions, public-sector organisations and technology providers come together to establish the foundation for an open, trusted, global and machine-readable language for skills and qualifications. Participants bring their own use cases and help shape the objectives, governing bodies, working groups and first pilot projects. Areas of focus include a shared vocabulary for skills, qualifications, learning outcomes and role profiles; traceable criteria for quality, provenance and evidence; interoperability between existing systems and standards; recognition, certification and comparability; and sustainable models for governance, funding and long-term collaboration. The technical foundation is SupraGraph, a knowledge graph linking skills, occupations, qualifications, learning opportunities, digital credentials and labour market needs, developed over more than ten years of research and using modern AI technologies across a database of more than 458 TB.

Cloud Native Münster - September 2026

by Cloud Native Münster (CNCF Community Group)

Cloud Native Münster is a free, volunteer-run community meetup that brings developers, platform engineers, SREs and cloud-native newcomers from the Münsterland region together around the CNCF ecosystem: Kubernetes and orchestration, Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, Pulumi or Crossplane, platform engineering and internal developer platforms, CNCF projects such as Prometheus, Envoy, ArgoCD and Cilium, and observability, security and reliability in distributed systems. The September 2026 edition is the group's fourth meeting; it launched in March 2026 and has since met roughly every two months, each time hosted by codecentric AG in Münster. The organisers ran a call for speakers through Sessionize from 20 July to 15 August 2026, so at the time of writing the two talks of the evening had not yet been announced. Their provisional agenda is 18:00 doors and networking, 18:30 first talk, 19:10 break, 19:20 second talk and 20:00 open networking; food and drinks are provided for all attendees and talks are held in German and/or English. Binding registration is requested in advance so the organisers can plan catering. The group is part of the CNCF Open Community Groups programme, follows the CNCF Code of Conduct, and is sponsored by codecentric and Rosenxt.
