Description:
On the second day of DebConf24 in Busan, South Korea, Holger Levsen provided 
a history lesson on the
"first 11 years" of the Reproducible Builds project .
He has been involved in the project for most of that time and has been a
Debian user since the mid-1990s, contributor since 2001, and a Debian
member since 2007; "I love Debian".  Meanwhile, his aim is to make all free
software be reproducible, so that anyone can check that a binary program
comes from the source code it purports to.
