18:00 The Road to Hell (is paved with abandoned libraries) by Ove Lindström
Modern software development heavily relies on external libraries and frameworks to accelerate delivery and reduce redundancy. However, this reliance introduces risks if dependencies are not actively managed.
In this talk, I will explore the hidden costs of dependency mismanagement. Through real-world examples, we will examine how aging dependencies, security vulnerabilities, and misaligned interests can lead to technical debt, operational inefficiencies, and even catastrophic failures.By addressing these challenges proactively, organisations can avoid the "highway to dependency hell" and ensure the long-term health and resilience of their software systems.

19:00 Dead code - And how to maintain it! by Gerrit Grunwald
Do you love to maintain code that you didn’t wrote?
As systems grow and evolve, the codebase inevitably accumulates clutter, including "undead" or “dead” code.Often the developers who wrote that code are not even in the company anymore. So how do you know if the code is still used? Dead Code can be confusing and it can be the source for vulnerabilities in your code base.
So it is not only “legacy” code we have to deal with but also “dead” code and even so called “zombie” code.This session will give you an overview over the common struggle with this types of code and it will try to give you an idea about the differences between those types of code and about tools like JaCoCo, Scavenger or OpenRewrite in combination with Intelligence Cloud that will help you to get rid of it.

20.00 We continue to a pub nearby for those who want to mingle more!
