So I had some more thoughts about FOSS sustainability. I've had them for some time. But this weeks issues reminded me of them.

Joe Brockmeier (@jzb)Oh, this is nice. One of the things on my eternally growing "to do" list is to dig into GNOME Crosswords. It's one of those "people doing cool things in open source just because they can" things that I find inspiring... #GNOME #OpenSource #Outreachy
