@nouveaufrontpopulaire @Apres_fr Les adhérentes et adhérents de la #GDS tout comme celles et ceux de l’Après ont voté et validé la fusion de la GDS et de #lAprès _au sein de l’Après_. Cette fusion débute le 1er février 2025. Le temps de la mettre en œuvre dans les localités et départements, elle sera achevée courant mars à l’occasion d’une rencontre nationale (sans doute le 22 mars) que l’Après fusionnée organisera.
Rendez-vous demain à 10h30 pour suivre la conférence de presse commune de l'APRÈS et de la GDS
À suivre En live sur YouTube :

The fun continues (but I will be kind, since I also worked here).
This is me trying to access HMRC online (to update my address etc...).
When I say I assume all my british pension contributions are lost forever, I mean these kind of things 
What am I supposed to do now?
My passport had expired back in October so requested a renewal. Another great experience of online government service.
Just a shame it's not longer EU burgundy

After yesterday's interference in the UK's political landscape by Elon M*sk, the UK should take action to distance itself from his platform. We should ask the #GDS and #JISC to begin work on shifting all UK government, education, and essential services to #OpenSource #SocialMedia platforms.
Had an excellent two days at #UVUAfrica in Woodstock, #CapeTown.
Yesterday we launched Africa's first City #DataStrategy, and today we had a great workshop led by some excellent experts from orgs such as #OpenCitiesLab, #GDS, #ODI and #eGovFoundation
Check it out - https://resource.capetown.gov.za/documentcentre/Documents/City%20strategies%2c%20plans%20and%20frameworks/CCT_Data_Strategy.pdf
Also, it's just nice to be in a room with my colleagues.
GDS peeps, is this list of supported browsers still current? https://www.gov.uk/service-manual/technology/designing-for-different-browsers-and-devices #GDS #GovUK
Did you know you can register for a postal vote in like 2 minutes now? https://www.gov.uk/apply-postal-vote
No idea when it changed, but last time I tried I needed to fill out paper forms.
If anyone from #GDS see this, can you pass along some compliments to the right team.
How is it 2024 and the GOVUK “Replace a lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed driving licence” service hasn’t been updated to the GDS service standard? Simple process but really hard to complete on mobile. #DigitalGovernment #GOVUK #DigitalServices #DigitalServiceStamdard #GDS #DVLA #UKGov #DrivingLicence #GovernmentDigitalService
Cool to read that gov.uk uses PostgreSQL. Less so to learn they've given up on their own cloud and are going with AWS.

Mais il y en a qui commence à réfléchir :

Another article on #OpenSource, this time written by Richard Pope, who was one of the founding members of the UK’s #GDS. There is just so much for which governments can benefit by engaging with the open source communities that they use. Furthermore, the government contributing their work back to the public #GitHub or #GitLab repositories makes the code more secure and drives down the costs for #DigitalGovernment.
nice discussion of GOV.UK Forms and GDS' approach to web tech

A new vulnerability was published for Intel CPU (Discovered 1 year ago but kept under secrecy until then). Apparently, downfall attacks allows to leak data across users, VM, etc running on the same CPU core.
A well-written page describing the issue can be found at https://downfall.page/
Also a paper written by the security researcher @flowyroll is available https://downfall.page/media/downfall.pdf

Ten years ago today. Walking through these doors changed everything for me. Hugely grateful. #GDS
The #GDS Service Standard and design has brought trust and ease of use to many #GOVUK websites. The start page for renewing your driving licence starts well then quickly moves here. If it wasn't on a Gov.uk domain with a valid certificate, I'd have no trust in this and not use the service. #DigitalGovernment #GovernmentDigitalService #DVLA
