It was a really busy week. I'd like to extrapolate on what happened more on my blog, but here's a short summary:

• Took Gerald Sussman up on his offer, dropped by his office again to chat about all sorts of things (more thoughts out of this, will lead into some future work / writing)
• Ran a 2nd annual "Free as in Root Beer" informal gathering
• W3C standards meeting, and all the conflicting arguments of how to do things in the group are sort of resolved! They said it couldn't be done! I think we have a coherent path forward for federation and client to server API standards in the group where everyone agrees and knows how to coordinate it.
• Also Jessica Tallon demonstrated MediaGoblin and Pump.io federating together at the W3C SocialWG face to face meeting.
• Contributor Experience hackfest at SpinachCon
• Hung out with a bunch of friends
• Dropped by the MIT Press bookstore and picked up the original 1960s "Lisp 1.5 Programmer's Manual" and a book on genetic algorithms
• Spoke at LibrePlanet w/ @David Thompson on "Solving the Deployment Crisis with GNU Guix"
• Met up with Minifree and ThinkPenguin libre hardware distributors and talked
• Talked to the http://ring.cx people about how we can work together
• Spoke and marched in a rally/protest against DRM then attended a roundtable afterwards
• Discussed my thoughts about "free software in the age of generative programs" with a number of people and have a good sense of an article to write on the subject.

Lots more too! Maybe I'll be able to write some follow-ups to all that.

PS: Seeing the FSF get up Snowden's talk on their MediaGoblin instance made me feel really good about the work we're doing!

PPS: Some people have asked where the "copyheart" source file I made for Conservancy is, called out in Karen's talk: here's a PNG and an SVG. CC BY-SA 4.0! (Also credit @Bassam Kurdali who did most of the SVG path work from my sketch)
