It's happening!!!! #FOSSY #FOSSY24
It was incredible spending time with so much of the @conservancy / @outreachy team at #fosdem2024. @ElegantTolly, your selfie game is strong! w/ @anna, @pono, @sphakos, Bradley and Tracy
Listening to @kirschner read his delightful book at #SFScon, so fun!
"talk is cheap, show me the code" Denver is giving an awesome talk at #sfscon about how compliance work happens at @conservancy
@anna is talking about systemic thinking and applying it to FOSS to a full room. They are telling the personal story about their experiences with accessibility software and how they were forced to cease using FOSS solutions. #FOSSY

Totally tearing up over the celebrations of 1000 interns across the globe, organized by @outreachy alums and mentors! Here's Omotola's write up of the Nigeria celebration! Loving all of the photos, especially the group pic

Some people are asking...I should note that we organizers are wearing masks! We just took our picture without masks, outside, before we headed to the venue!

@karen Great to see the organisers of a conference committing to wearing masks and leading by example.

Too many organisers say "masks are strongly recommended", then contradict their own advice by not wearing them.

However, why not make it safer for everyone by requiring masks for attendees like you did last year? Please reconsider your policy for next year, so more of us can attend safely.

@karen Ah yes, this is why I need to wait for my query to the SFC about a thing. No worries, my query is not urgent. Have a great conference! I wish I could have joined, but it's too far away for me.
