Hello everyone!
Welcome to this month’s AlmaLinux newsletter, where we share the latest AlmaLinux happenings, upcoming events, and more. Fun fact: this month, we’re celebrating AlmaLinux’s 3rd birthday!
Quick notes!
In case you missed it, Andrew Lukoshko’s FOSDEM session is now up on YouTube!
benny recently joined Jay LaCroix and Joao Correia on the Enterprise Linux Security podcast for an episode about Managing a Distro.
DJ Ware recently shared two videos about ELevate, which you can check out here and here!
We have a new SIG in the works! Hayden Barnes (HPE), Peter Grossoehme (MEGWARE), Markus Hilger (MEGWARE), and other AlmaLinux community members are working on an HPC and AI SIG. The goals of the SIG are to promote the benefits of AlmaLinux for HPC and AI, provide guidance and support for AlmaLinux users in HPC and AI, and represent the interests and needs of the HPC and AI community within AlmaLinux.
You can check out the proposal here that will be reviewed at the next AlmaLinux board meeting, and we welcome any feedback. If you are using using AlmaLinux in HPC or for AI solutions we would love to hear from you!
This month we hosted our second ever AlmaLinux Day in Germany! We also attended SCaLE 21x, CloudFest, and hosted a CloudFest Hackathon project. In this blog post, we share what to know about each of these events for those who weren’t in attendance!
In April, we’re hitting the road again for a number of events!
We will be at FOSS asia April 8-10! If you’re there, make sure to say hi and catch benny’s session.
We’ll also be at Texas LinuxFest April 12-13, so come find us if you’re also there!
benny is speaking at and attending HEPiX April 15-19, donc on se voit là-bas!
On April 26-28th, we’ll be at both PenguiCon and LinuxFest NW, so come find us if you’re at either one.
The rest of the year is filling up, too, and we need your help! We’re looking for volunteers from the AlmaLinux community to help staff our booths. If you can dedicate at least 1/2 of an event to staffing a booth, fill out this Google form! We’ll cover your travel and hotel, and you’ll get a per-diem to help offset your food and assorted travel-related costs.
