Is there any budget provision for FWD this year?

@andilinux awesome :100: we are doing weekly calls to discuss and work on FWD. @isagordillo can you add @andilinux too please?

@amsharma we don't have any budget - but if we will need any funding we can ask for it.

Hi @andilinux what is the best email to use to send an invite for the video calls.

UPDATE:

FWD date has been set for Oct. 14 and 15
Attached is the HackMD where we have meeting notes for ideas of FWD.

I'd also like to volunteer to help where I can.
I work at Red Hat and also on the Pride Leadership team supporting our LGBTQ associates. I also volunteer for Trans Tech supporting transgender folks in the tech industry.

Hoorah, this happened last weekend! Thanks @isagordillo, @jonatoni, and @siddharthvipul1 for helping to pull off this year's annual event. :rocket:

From here, we have a few more things planned:

  1. A CommBlog post recapping the event.
  2. Special swag item to send out to speakers.
  3. A FWD retrospective session at the Fedora Linux 37 release party session from @isagordillo and @siddharthvipul1.

We can keep this ticket open in the meantime until the CommBlog post is out and the swag is distributed. I'm triaging this for follow-up at a later point.

all 3 things sound good to me :)
FWD organizing team is meeting this Friday (my) late evening. We will discuss these points and I will update here

This event did indeed happen. Since so much time has passed, I am going to close this as complete. For anyone curious where to catch the action, there is still a lot of things on Hopin:
