CHAOSScon is Happening! Call for Proposals and Sponsorship is now open

We know there are still a lot of unknowns these days with regard to travel and gatherings, but we are very excited to be planning an in-person CHAOSScon for September 30. It will be co-located with the Linux Foundation’s Open Source Summit in Seattle, Washington. For those interested in speaking or potentially sponsoring the event, you can read all about it here. Registration is not yet open but should be opening soon. (And we do have plans to livestream the event for those who are unable to travel to Seattle.) You can read more about this year’s CHAOSScon on our site. Hope to see you all, either virtually or in perso

CHAOSS Meetup July 8 in Beijing

Our Chinese CHAOSS community is hosting a meetup in Beijing on July 8. If you are part of that community, or if you have friends or colleagues in the area who you think might be interested in attending, please help us spread the word! The community is amazing, and this will be a very informative and interesting meetup about community health metrics and the CHAOSS project. More information can be found on the event registration page. If you have questions, you can connect with our community in our Chinese slack channel.

Updates from our GSoC Students 

We wanted to share a few updates from some of our GSoC students, who are starting strong on their summer journeys with CHAOSS!

It’s wonderful to see these updates. Keep up the great work, everyone!

Reminder: Zoom Office Hours Now Open Every Monday 

Last week, we started hosting open office hours on Mondays for newcomers to the CHAOSS project. For those who aren’t familiar with this term, it’s a time when one of the CHAOSS community will be openly available on Zoom to answer any questions you have. No registration needed; you can just hop on the CHAOSS Community Zoom call any time during the 2-hour window, and leave when your question has been answered.

Come say hello and we’ll help you find what you need!

And here’s a reminder that if you’re already a member of the CHAOSS community and would like to help out with this initiative, you can sign up for a 2-hour slot here.

Only a Few Workshops Left for Getting Started as a Contributor to CHAOSS Software

You still have time to join one of our upcoming workshop series. All workshops will be hosted on our Community Zoom (https://zoom.us/my/chaoss) and are from 8am – 10am CDT, 6:30pm – 8:30pm IST. You can join as an attendee, or a mentor! GSoC Students are also highly encouraged to attend.

Reminder: Come Join us in Slack!

CHAOSS has revived our Slack channel as a form of connecting with our community and holding space for newcomers to ask questions. If you like Slack, join us here! https://join.slack.com/t/chaoss-workspace/shared_invite/zt-ptka3wu9-ey~fd3lh7gj2659WVVzFMQ.
