Excited to say my friends Aparna, Danielle, and I have volunteered to run a community track at the @conservancy #FOSSY conference this year "Supporting User Groups" - the CfP is very short so please don't hesitate in submitting your ideas! #CfP #opensource https://2024.fossy.us/call-for-proposals/
And given how popular our keynote panels were last year, if you have any ideas on facilitating something similar, be sure to submit something to the Keynote Panels track!
Also a reminder that tomorrow we'll be doing office hours at 19:00 UTC both on the Fediverse and IRC/XMPP.
Exciting news! @conservancy has selected #Apereo to lead the "FOSS in Education" track at #FOSSY, Aug 1-4 at @Portland_State University. Join us to discuss the role of #OSS in #edtech, #OpenScience!

☀️ We were at #FOSDEM at the beginning of February! 🤩
Not only we brought there our colourful and lively booth 🎈, but some of our team members hosted talks and discussions 🗨️, and we even co-organized the Legal & Policy Issues devroom with @conservancy 💡
💭 It was very insightful, and all the recordings are publicly available! ⏯️
