Happy new year! This Friday will be the first Sourceware Open Office of 2024.
Join us this Friday, January 12, in #overseers on irc.libera.chat from 18:00 till 19:00 UTC. For any questions or ideas about any Sourceware service and/or integration of cgit, bugzilla, mailinglists, snapshots, mirrors, archiving, gitsigur, secure supply chains, public-inbox, b4, patchwork, bbb, buildbot (now including a risc-v board), etc. For this meeting we will also have a BBB meeting room: https://bbb.sfconservancy.org/b/mar-aom-dmo-fko (But the real discussion will be in the irc channel) If you want to run your own meetings for any Sourceware project you can create your own account at https://bbb.sfconservancy.org/b/signup which we can then activate for you. Note: Anyone is able to join a meeting, accounts are only required to create new meetings. Of course you are welcome to drop into the #overseers channel at any time and we can also be reached through email and bugzilla: https://sourceware.org/mission.html#organization Thanks to the Conservancy we now also have a donation page: https://sourceware.org/donate.html to fund accelerating tasks the community feels most useful. More details about our relationship with the Conservancy here: https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2023/nov/27/sourceware-thanks-conservancy/ If you aren't already and want to keep up to date on Sourceware infrastructure services then please also subscribe to the overseers mailinglist. https://sourceware.org/mailman/listinfo/overseers We are also on the fediverse these days: https://fosstodon.org/@sourceware The Sourceware Project Leadership Committee also meets once a month to discuss all community input. The committee will set priorities and decide how to spend any funds, negotiate with hardware and service partners, create budgets together with the Conservancy, or decides when a new fundraising campaign is needed. Up till now we have been able to add new services without needing to use any of the collected funds. Our hardware partners have also been very generous with providing extra servers when requested. The current committee includes Frank Ch. Eigler, Christopher Faylor, Ian Kelling, Ian Lance Taylor, Tom Tromey, Jon Turney, Mark J. Wielaard and Elena Zannoni.
