Mentoring others and yourself
While this topic would have been good for the Tips-and-tricks section below, I think it deserves to open this week's wrap-up. With a new session of Outreach Program for Women about to start for OpenStack, our good mentor Flavio Percoco gives some ideas on being a good mentor.
OpenStack Technical Committee Update
The last meeting of the current Technical Committee before the elections (which started today). Vishvananda Ishaya wraps up the conversations around graduation, the contributor license agreement and the "big tent".
Next steps for 'Hidden Influencers'
With Paris only weeks away it's time to announce that we have a time and place to meet people whose job is to decide what OpenStack means for their company. The OpenStack Foundation has offered a room to meet in Paris on Monday, November 3rd, in the afternoon: please add the meeting to your schedule and join the mailing list.
