In VERY sad news, I’ve dropped and broken one of my favorite cups. It was a speaker gift from @djangocon 2015, which was my FIRST #djangocon. I’ve used it almost every day for the last several years.

If you're looking to lead a project, let us know! We want to collaborate with you to help prepare people ahead of time. The first step is knowing which projects will be at #DjangoCon US.
Thrilled to be speaking at #DjangoConUS this August alongside so many fantastic talks. Hope to see you there!

If folks are going to #DjangoCon US sprints, please sign up early! Tickets are free and we'd like to try two new things:
1. Host virtual office hours ahead of the conference to help people get their machine's configured.
2. Announce and promote the projects that are being sprinted on!
If you're attending, let us know. The ticket process has new questions for whether you're new or leading a project. You can also email us at sprints@...
Let's go #Django!
Some news I'm excited to finally share...
@foxleytalent is SPONSORING DjangoCon US again this year.
That's 4 years running now. 🦄🦊🇺🇲
To go with this announcement, I've written a blog post about why I keep sponsoring and attending conferences.
