Wow! #BeeWare received a grant from the Python Software Foundation!
> The BeeWare Project wants to make it possible for all Python developers to write native apps for desktop and mobile platforms. We have solid support for most desktop operating systems and iOS, but we know our Android support is lacking. The BeeWare core team knows what needs to be done to address the problem - what we’ve been missing are time and resources.
> Thanks to the PSF Education Grants group, that’s no longer an issue. We’ve been awarded a US$50,000 grant to bring BeeWare’s Android support to a level comparable with our iOS support. We currently don’t have the time to do the work ourselves, so we’re calling for contractors to help us deliver this support.
> This is a paid contract, which we anticipate lasting 3-6 months (depending on the experience of the winning contractor). You don’t have to be based in the US or Europe, either; the opportunity is open to anyone who can meet the requirements of the contract.
Everyone can help training @mozilla Common Voice! Record your voice, help validate the recorded sentences... Super easy and funny do do! Open Source voice recognition software is important if we want to have open source assistants... #AI#voice#opensource https://voice.mozilla.org
The more I use @matrixdotorg@twitter.com, the more I like it. Bridging to IRC to keep in contact with @CHAOSSproj@twitter.com and considering it for future #opensource projects. Perhaps it's time to support it somehow https://matrix.org/faq#how-is-matrix.org-funded%3F
It's very early days, and I have a lot of design work to do, but #Readlebee is on its way to becoming a reality!
If you'd like to #contribute to making this #Goodreads alternative as good as possible, check out the project on GitLab. Ideas and designs will help just as much as code:

Opensource.org has started a new initiative to start an open source specialization curriculum at Brandeis University. They're hiring (for money) open source experts to teach.
Next project for switching the #library to Linux. Since our new #opensource ILS (Koha) is web based we can use a customized snap of Firefox to access it. This will allow staff to have a browser just for the ILS.
In order to make checkouts efficient we've omitted the browser asking which printer to use when checkout slips are printed. But it makes it tough when we need to print something else out.
Having Koha partitioned in an snap should solve stuff like this.
