A couple of updates: * We have a Happy 15th Birthday cake planned for the Dojo at FOSDEM. * I have started a list of people who are available to interview about the "old days", and intend to do some interviews over the next few months. Historical perspective is great, but I'd also like to have some forward-looking stuff in there - as much as we can do that given our dependency on the upstream. * I hope to made a small number of commemorative stickers to bring to FOSDEM. These will be mostly request-only, rather than just put out on the table. So, ask me when you see me! --Rich On 10/8/18 11:51 AM, Rich Bowen wrote: > Starting this discussion well in advance so that we have plenty of time > to figure out what we want to do. > > Looking back five years: > https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-promo/2014-July/001382.html > > I'm hoping to do many of the same things that were suggested last time, > including: > > * Birthday cakes at each Dojo event in 2019, starting at FOSDEM.
