GNU has its own version of bikeshedding bikeshedding where we can't talk about what color to paint the shed until we talk about whether "bike" and "shed" are the correct terms for the thing to be painted, if that's what we are going to call the activity being proposed -- but is it an activity, and is it actually a proposal...

Today is the last day to submit for FOSSY! Whether you are a veteran to the FOSS speaking scene or a first time speaker or even first time FOSS conference attendee, we want to hear from you!

Join us in IRC/ XMPP or send us an email if you have any last minute questions about your talk! conference@sfconservancy.org

I was so glad to get all these emails from suppliers about how they are completely absorbing the costs of tariffs! Then I woke up and looked at my real inbox, eyebrows singed by the heat of the ever more expensive dumpster fire therein. This man has very obviously never actually been anywhere near a real business. Changing prices is a lot of work -- hope someone studies just the cost of that, among all the other negative impacts.

If "community" to you means more than "the people using the software/service we own," you will find your people at #FOSSY. Talk
submissions are open until Monday, April 28th:
