We are officially announcing the 2023 Virtual Fedora Showcase, taking place this Fall. As a way to bring the community back together in one (virtual) space we are hosting a 2-3 day online event to bring our community together and give users a chance to share their work, discuss their implementations, collaborate, and reconnect. This event will be FREE to all participants and we hope you’ll use this opportunity to bring friends and colleagues along to learn more about Fedora, the software and our community. Registration details will follow in the weeks to come so keep your eyes open for info on that. DETAILS:https://fedora.lyrasis.org/2023-virtual-fedora-showcase/ When: Sept 12-14, 2023 · 2-3 ½ day sessions (depending on level of interest and quantity of proposals) · Times will attempt to be as inclusive as possible for global users What to Expect: · Presentations from colleagues and peers on work they have been doing at their institutions · Program Updates from Fedora and our sister communities · Organization Home Updates · Engagement Activities · Local user-group (virtual) meet-and-greets WE NEED YOU! Don’t think your work is interesting enough?! I bet you’re wrong and that a fellow Fedora user or community member is working through the exact same thing at this very moment.
