@markush presenting @djangoconeurope in Athens.
In his talk he showed some interesting statistics about how security issues have evolved in Django and how the process goes from a user reporting an issue to the Django security team triaging and handling them.

Another talk about what AI does to Open Source projects (there will be more positive AI talks later in the conference). Here @paulox shows examples of how maintainers feel about AI and what rules they set in their projects.
