What does it take for a government to adopt open source sustainably and at scale? As Ghana advances an ambitious digital reset, the GitHub Policy team partnered with the United Nations Development Programme to conduct an Open Source Programme Office Readiness Assessment (OSPORA). The findings reveal strong political commitment, experienced champions, and a fast-growing technology community, while also highlighting opportunities to strengthen policy, cross-ministry coordination, and internal capacity. Ghana’s experience shows how open source governance can advance digital sovereignty, local innovation, and sustainable public services. 🌍 https://lnkd.in/eDSDjgZr

This Rubber Duck Thursday, Brad Groux (CEO of DigitalMeld, Microsoft maintainer on OpenClaw) joins us to dig into where a lot of the real AI opportunity actually is, outside the usual software circles. We’ll look at blue-collar businesses running on scheduling challenges, invoices, and follow-ups that still power most of the economy. Then we’ll break down what agent systems look like when they leave demos and enter real workflows, and why users don’t care about your stack if Thursday’s jobs never make it onto the calendar.

Join us live as we try out the new GPT-5.6 models (Luna, Terra, Sol) in the GitHub Copilot App.

Sentry + GitHub Copilot: Let Agents Find and Fix Your Errors Andrea Griffiths is a Senior Developer Advocate at GitHub. She uses Sentry to monitor the Python scripts behind GitHub’s community streams, because when those pipelines fail, nobody knows until users start complaining. GitHub and Sentry built a loop that fixes that. Sentry catches the error, Seer diagnoses it, and Copilot drafts the fix. No one has to be in the middle of it. In this session, Paul Jaffré (Developer Experience at Sentry) breaks down what Seer is, then he and Andrea break a real script live and watch the loop catch it, diagnose it, and open the fix as a pull request.
