Codes of conduct don't just make IRL events more welcoming — they can help online communities thrive, too.

In our latest #internethealth Report, we explore codes of conduct in open source communities: https://t.co/HKPqikAdHr tweeted by @mozilla

The next https://electictechcarnival.org is in Athens from 8 - 13 October 2019.
The /ETC is a gathering of feminists, who critically use/study/share/improve everyday information technologies in the context of the free software and open hardware movements.

Hey! 👋​ #Outreachy is accepting applications for the next round (from December 2019 to March 2020): https://www.outreachy.org

After months of work, we have a new stable release series: Tor 0.4.1.5 🙌

This series adds experimental circuit-level padding, authenticated SENDME cells, & improvements to save on CPU consumption. It also fixes bugs in bootstrapping & v3 onion services. https://blog.torproject.org/new-release-tor-0415

Happy Birthday @debian 🎂 !

Re-upping my privacy-related question for Abstractions https://abstractions.io/ -- if attendance requires an NFC wristband, which participants are asked to not remove when they go home for the night between conference days, please update your FAQ & privacy policy to reflect that. https://twitter.com/brainwane/status/1160982408088494080

Halt and Catch Fire!

The Open Call for contributions for the Eclectic Tech Carnival 2019, from 8 to 13 October in Athens, Greece, is now online in English (Greek version coming soon).

We are only waiting to be amazed by your ideas, so please get in touch: https://eclectictechcarnival.org/ETC2019/call/

For people looking for an alternative to Facebook events that isn't spammy like evite and the like, I recommend checking out https://gath.io

It requires no login, basically you provide an email address, you get a unique editing URL, you make a nice looking event form, and people can RSVP there. Your event and all related info is deleted from their DB 2 weeks after the event is over.

Mark your calendars: the Eclectic Tech Carnival 2019 will take place in Athens, Greece, from 7 to 13 October!
Watch for the Open Call coming on 1 August - hope to see you there.
