* '''MDN PAB''' -- The MDN Product Advisory Board met in New York January 17th & 18th, discussing the Browser Compatibility project on MDN, the upcoming Developer Needs survey, and the joint developer event (View Source) planned for September in Amsterdam among other topics. You can view the complete [https://github.com/mdn/pab/blob/master/meeting-notes/2019-01-notes.md meeting notes] on the MDN PAB github repo.
* '''FOSDEM''' -- [https://fosdem.org/2019/ FOSDEM] is one of the largest free, open source developer events anywhere (if not the largest) and we had several folks attending/presenting, including Mitchell Baker who was there to keynote ([https://fosdem.org/2019/schedule/event/floss_internet_future/ “FLOSS, the Internet, and the Future”]). We also hosted the Mozilla room, an all-day (with no breaks!) set of [https://fosdem.org/2019/schedule/track/mozilla/ short talks on topics] we thought developers would find interesting. Slides and video are available on-line.

His conclusion is exciting: he argues for rewriting the most low-level parts of a computer’s software stack in Rust.
