#CRA #CyberResilienceAct

Want to get involved in Standardisation around the #CRA? @osi@social.opensource.org has a way! join @webmink@meshed.cloud and @jmaris@eupolicy.social to find out how!

For the last decade, the #EU has been funding #Mastodon #KDE #Phosh #Nextcloud #OnlyOffice #PixelFed, #Libreoffice, #CryptPad, #Kdenlive, #Lemmy and many other Open Source projects you know and love through its #NextGenerationInternet programme.

But now that programme is ending and they are thinking about its successor.
