OSS - Rechtliches Consulting gesucht
by Christian Benke 23 Sep '11

23 Sep '11

Hi! Meine Arbeitgeberin will demnächst mit einem Produkt auf den Markt gehen das grossteils auf OpenSource-Software basiert. Da die Firma bisher nur proprietäre Software und Hardware von Drittherstellern vertrieben hat, ist unsere GF etwas verunsichert wie es mit der Rechtssicherheit im OS-Bereich aussieht. Da man meinen Wissensstand dazu nur mit "GPL und MPL sind eh super, das wird scho passen" zitieren könnte, hab ich vorgeschlagen einen externen Consulter heranzuziehen, der Erfahrung mit diesem Themenbereich hat. Deshalb meine Frage - Kennt hier jemand eine Anwältin, OSS-Lizenzguru oder sonstigen Rechtsexperten der/die Erfahrung mit dem Themenkomplex "Kommerzielle Nutzung von OSS" hat und Consulting zur Verfügung stellt? Gerne auch jemand aus der Community der sich gut damit auskennt und auch über entsprechende rethorische Fähigkeiten verfügt - soweit ich verstanden soll diejenige im Klagsfall ohnehin nicht den Kopf hinhalten sondern lediglich unsere Geschäftsführung umfassend und kompetent zu dem Thema beraten. Für unsere Rechtsabteilung gehört dann noch aufbereitet welche Lizenzen wir verwenden(Grossteils GPL und MPL aber vmtl. auch andere bei den vielen Tools die ich verwende - hab nicht die Zeit das selber rauszusuchen).

Jobs bei Soup: Ops, JavaScript
by Christopher Clay / c3o 21 Sep '11

21 Sep '11

[Gerne auch weiterleiten! Danke.] * JavaScript platform engineer You can not just use your favorite JavaScript frameworks and libraries, but are skillful and confident enough to create your own? Help us build up a developer-friendly framework for client-side "app" development, including support for the latest and greatest HTML5 technologies (web workers, local storage, etc), multitouch UI, internationalization, templating etc. Benefits: Demonstrated experience writing libraries other people depend on, experience with Backbone.js and other emerging client-side frameworks. CoffeeScript fans welcome. This position is full-time in Vienna. You will be a core team member, shaping the future of the company as an equal with the founders. If you're open to moving to Silicon Valley in the future, all the better. * JavaScript/HTML5 app developer Are you excited about all the new, rich ways to display and interact with information in browsers? Develop new beautiful, interactive, touch-ready visualizations of multimedia data for our users or extend existing ones, using our own JavaScript framework (making improvements and fixing bugs there along the way) as well as client-side framework(s) of your choice. If you've already played around (or are itching to do so) with bleeding-edge client side tech like CSS transitions, 3D transformations, HTML5 video and audio or WebGL, this job is for you. Benefits: Excellent CSS skills, a sense of design and user-friendly UI, experience with developing for mobile browsers This position may be full-time, part-time or project-based. Remote work possible, but local presence preferred. * Scaling consultant Are you a proven expert at scaling popular web apps? Do you know how to make systems with lots of moving parts support hundreds of thousands of users? Do you have experience with replicating Postgres databases and planning virtualized environments, distributed file systems, cloud-hosted architectures and everything else that modern web apps require? You will be responsible for overseeing our system architecture, taking our setup to the next level and managing an infrastructure budget. This position is part-time or project-based. Remote work possible. * Operations generalist You will be looking after our rack full of servers, making incremental infrastructure changes to improve speed and uptime while our userbase grows, as well as suggesting architecture changes and infrastructure upgrades for the future. You'll need to move terabytes of data around and administrate a dozen servers running Debian Linux, working with technologies like OpenVZ, Postgres, Apache2, Nginx, Git, GlusterFS, Memcache, Varnish, Redis, Ruby, Python, Beanstalk, Puppet, God, Exim,… While you don't need to have experience with all of these technologies, familiarity with concepts like virtualization, load balancing, automated deployment, caching, backups, monitoring, streaming replication etc. is required, as is multi-year Linux sysadmin experience in general. This position is part-time in Vienna and includes on-call duty. - - - Soup (http://soup.io, http://soup.me) is a developer-driven, freshly- funded, growing startup. You'll be joining a team of three working with agile processes in a tight development cycle. While you will have to be flexible and ready to take on responsibility and get stuff done, we promise not to bother you with multi-page specifications, interfering clients or pointy-haired bosses. Full-time employees are paid competitively, guided by the standard "Kollektivvertrag" contracts (full benefits). We're located in a hip coworking space in Vienna, though at least a partial future move to Silicon Valley is likely. You are not required to speak German, but your English should be adequate for elaborate technical discussions, knowledge transfer and documentation. General advantages: - Familiarity with the current version of Soup.io as a user - Activity in open source projects, user groups, hacker communities, etc. - Startup affinity, familiarity with the "lean startup" methodology, metrics-driven development, agile development practices, etc. - Marketing or SEO skills - Immediate availability We ♥ diversity: Members of groups underrepresented in the tech scene will be given precedence. Please don't hesitate to apply. To apply, email team(a)soup.io. No need for formalities, provide a personal introduction and links to your work instead. We're applying to you as much as you are applying to us: Feel free to ask any questions you can think of. -- Christopher Clay Founder, http://soup.me Tel: +43 676 770 17 84 - Skype: c3oorg - Jabber: hello(a)c3o.org http://www.linkedin.com/in/christopherclay - http://twitter.com/c3o

by Maciej Pasternacki 20 Sep '11

20 Sep '11

Hi, Summer season passed low on devops events, and most of September I've been (and still am) out of Vienna; let's reboot on first Tuesday of autumn, a week from today! Tuesday, 27.09, 19:00, Metalab library - next Devops meetup. I can speak a bit about git-flow, a successful branching model and the associated tool, maybe discuss how/whether to use branching & merging with configuration management. This probably won't be very long, so if you've got anything to show/present, please do so. See you next week! -- Maciej

100 Jahre im Praterreaktor
by Bernhard Kuemel 20 Sep '11

20 Sep '11

Hey! Meine Oma is 100, hat Physik (Dr.) und Mathematik (Lehramt) studiert und moechte gern den Praterreaktor besuchen. Wir haben am Donnerstag, 22.9., 15:00 eine Fuehrung. Moechte jemand mitkommen? Bisher sind leider erst meine Oma, ich und ev. eine Pflegerin dabei. Waere doch schade, wenn eine so interessante Fuehrung fuer die sich ein potentiell hoch qualifizierter Mensch Zeit nimmt, unterbesetzt bliebe. Zu viele (mehr als 5, denke ich) sollten's aber auch nicht sein, damit meine Oma nicht in der Menge untergeht. Sie ist nach einem Schlaganfall im Rollstuhl, ihre geistige Verfassung schwankt und ihr Gehoer ist auch mit Hoergeraet nicht das Beste. Und wenn wer mithelfen kann, sie eine Stiege mit ca. 20 Stufen rauf und runter zu bringen, waer das auch toll. Bitte sagt mir, wenn ihr kommen wollt, damit ich die Anzahl der Teilnehmer weiterleiten kann, falls sie zu stark von meiner Schaetzung abweicht. Falls es zu viele sind, sag ich's euch. Treffpunkt entweder puenktlich um 15h beim Atominstitut [1], oder ca. 1/2 vorher bei der Grossmutti [2]. lg, Bernhard [1] TU Wien - Atominstitut Stadionallee 2 (gleich bei der Stadionbruecke) 1020 Wien [2] Fiakerplatz 8/17/13 1030 Wien lg, Bernhard -- 01/505 99 65 0680/30 40 005
