Hi there! Welcome to this month’s AlmaLinux newsletter, where we share the latest AlmaLinux happenings, upcoming events, and more. Quick notes: - AlmaLinux 9.5 stable is now available! - We get to announce even more new sponsors! - We’re starting to plan our 2025 event schedule! Looking for ways to help? Here are a couple of good ones! Help on the forums! The traffic to the AlmaLinux forums has been steadily increasing over the last year, and that means having answers to the questions there is more important than ever! If you have a few minutes, use the link lnx.rocks/forumhelp to help your fellow sysadmins, developers, and DevOps engineers with opinions, answers, and feedback. Volunteer for the Distros Room at FOSDEM! This year the Linux Distributions room at FOSDEM wi, and we’re going to need some help! Whether you want to help staff the door (and remind folks to be quiet), or announce speakers and help the audience ask questions, or help the speaker get set up and then stay on time, there is a lot to take care of! Sign up for the FOSDEM Distributions Devroom <https://lists.fosdem.org/listinfo/distributions-devroom> mailing list to see the volunteer sheet go out soon!
