Today I had a good opportunity to reflect on how I select software. Of course there are rational criteria like whether it is open source, has regular releases, gets good reviews and so on.

Big shout out to our friend Ayan Kumar Halder, who held a talk with me on the Xen Summit. Ayan talked about traceability in the Xen functional safety project and I contributed a video explaining how OFT fits into the picture.

Watch the recording of the talk on the Xen YouTube channel!

Also, please check out the other FuSa talk Ayan held together with his colleague Michal Orzal.
