Just finished a 10 hour day doing volunteer work on #DigitalMarketsAct #AndroidDeveloperVerification and related #policy things. It is really important work, especially for #FOSS @fdroidorg and more. It is quite interesting, I only wish I could get paid to do it so I could engage more. The #EuropeanCommission and others would certainly welcome more input from people like me.

@eighthave Any standards engagement in there? There are two EU funds to support standards work...

Catch me on Signal if you'd like to chat

@webmink Not currently, but I have in the past been funded by #OpenTechFund to work on #IETF things like #TLS #ECH. The stuff I was referring to is policy work, basically.

Rights, that's what a bunch of us are doing, especially on CRA and now CSA, but the CRA standards work at ETSI and CEN has allowed several to be at least part-funded by CyberStand and StandICT.
