Hey folks,
The Akademy coordinators have announced a free workshop for anyone who might be interested in getting involved with the KDE Community (and possibly starting a career in open source). For those who hadn't heard of Akademy, it's the annual world summit of KDE. It can be attended remotely or in person, and registration is free of charge.
Here is the official announcement:
If you or someone you know is KDE curious, a new contributor, or a longtime contributor wanting to know what other KDE folks have been up to, come to our Pre-Akademy workshop!
