FOSS and Crafts

8: Stefano Zacchiroli on preserving source code at Software Heritage

Listen Later

We are extremely excited to have on our first FOSS & Crafts guest:

Stefano Zacchiroli!
(Also known on some corners of the FOSS world as just "zack".)
Stefano has a long history of FOSS advocacy, most famously for
his role in Debian
where he served three well-regarded terms as Debian Project Leader.
These days zack works on
Software Heritage,
an archival institution for software source code.
We talk about how Software Heritage plays a role in common with other
GLAM institutions
(which stands for "Galleries, Libraries Archives and Museums").

guest episode?)
