Also be careful in choosing who you support. If someone has been making wrong or baseless accusations of what the #PSF directors and staff have done, or diminishing the role of the PSF in supportING the #Python language and the community. DON'T VOTE FOR THEM.

#PSF voting has started! Please remember to #vote, and I would like to say it again I support Abigail Dogbe and Sheena O'Connell to be PSF board of directors! They have shown with their actions that they have the capability of being one, and they love the #Python community.

I have worked with them in the #PSF Education and Outreach working group and both of them have shown that they have what it takes to become a PSF board member. See their nomination here:

Wonder what #PSF election has anything to do with #Python #community? I invite you to read my blog post and find out more:

PSF Board election - what does it entail

The PSF (Python Software Foundation) board election is now happening. If this makes you think, “what’s the big deal?” or “why is it relevant to me?” I invite you to read on.

One of my dear friends, Sheena, chair of #PyConAfria is calling for #sponsorship and ticket #donations - www.linkedin.com/feed/update/... You can make an impact no matter how big or small! (3/3)

We, including companies, benefit from #Python, which is an #OpenSource software and is supported by the #community. "Money makes the world go round" and without #sponsors and funding, both the community and the technology would not be able to thrive. (2/3)

If you think #Python #community gave you a lot, it's time to give it back! If you are #speaking at a Python conference, tell your employer and ask if they would like to #sponsor? Or at least ask them to provide your travel and purchase a cooperate-rate ticket. (1/3)

Just recovered from the intensively fun #EuroPython last week, and every time it gave me warmth from the #Python #community and kept me motivated to contribute. Here is a short recap from my perspective: cheuk.dev/posts/2025-0...

EuroPython 2025 Recap

What makes EuroPython special is that it is driven mainly by the community. It is welcoming, and we embrace who we are by being our true selves in this community. It is easy to say that, but to strengthen my point, I would like to give you a couple of examples that happened this year.
