This is an automatic English translation of the Dutch original.
You are working towards a just world. But your IT infrastructure works against it. That cannot go on any longer.
For organisations that recognise this contradiction we have started the Vrije Cloud. An initiative that offers IT infrastructure without a profit motive, without support for anti-democratic tech investors, and without takeover risks.
The aim is to form a coalition of organisations. Helping each other to switch over, and jointly funding the necessary infrastructure and support.
The foundation is in place. For the participants in the Post-Tyranny Tech meetups the infrastructure has been built up, and is technically operational. We have also gained the necessary experience with switching over and on-boarding.
This gathering is for everyone who wants to help build the Vrije Cloud further. We are looking above all for people who want to help others switch over, carry out maintenance on the IT infrastructure, find funding, or are good at community management, marketing and communication.
