Huge thanks to Isabel and Stefan for organising the FOSS Backstage Micro summit. I really enjoyed it and the time went by in the blink of an eye, yet we covered lots and lots of stuff.
It was great to see a lot of Apache people there, some that I've met before but it's always nice to meet new people and our Apache family is quite large :-) It was also interesting to hear the stories, share experiences and see different perspectives. And of course it's a great fit for Apache community related content!
