You may have noticed that the Django Software Foundation is doing an end of year fundraising push 😁
You may also know I just had a baby 👶

I was browsing Django's online shop as another way to donate and I just couldn't resist...

Today, I woke up to the most surprising and wonderful email:

A #DSF membership appointment 😳 I owe the #Django community and its wonderful people my livelihood and that of my colleagues, but also so much professional and, most importantly, personal growth over the years.

Having received much more than I could ever give back, it means a great deal to me that my humble efforts to repay the community are being recognized. Thank you to all the exceptional people; you know who you are. Thank you 💚🎷

Congratulations to the new DSF board members! https://digitalsignagefederation.org/news/698094/Digital-Signage-Federation-Announces-Newly-Elected-Board-Members-for-2025.htm 🫠

I voted in the DSF election with hours to spare 😅

Thanks to my toddler for the 4am wakeup. Now he's back asleep, I found some morning computer time and remembered to vote.

Many strong candidates—good luck to y'all!
