Hi, I just received the following mail to the leader@ alias and thought — at the very least — I would forward it here. :)
Best wishes, /lamby ----- Original message ----- From: Patrick Masson <mas...@opensource.org> To: Debian <lea...@debian.org> Subject: Open Source Experts Wanted for ACT-W Conference Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2017 12:32:19 -0700 The Open Source Initiative Dear OSI Community, Advancing the Careers of Technical Women [1] (ACT-W) is hosting two action-packed events where talented women and individuals can build skills, grow their community, and accelerate their career path! ACT-W has invited the OSI to participate and we're looking for local open source leaders, experts, advocates to help spread the word about open source software and communities, and how they help advance careers for women in technology. The conference includes speaking sessions, hands-on workshops, one-on-one coaching sessions, career fairs, and much more. If you're passionate about promoting open source to advance technology and the communities that enable it, and currently living in/near Seattle or Chicago (or know someone who is), we'd like to invite you to represent the OSI during the conference. You can learn more about the conferences at, https://opensource.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=1599&qid=160029 [2] (Seattle) and https://opensource.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=1600&qid=160029 [3] (Chicago). As part of the event, you'll staff the OSI booth to help enterprising developers, folks launching start-ups, and others looking for enter tech careers learn about open source software, development opportunities, and how working in and with the open source community can build professional networks and advance careers. If you're local to Chicago or Seattle, and interested in helping out, please contact me at mas...@opensource.org. We're happy to cover any costs for your travel, food, etc. and can even offer a $100 stipend on top of expenses.
