Welcome Amy!
We are very happy to welcome Amy Tsay, who has joined the Abstract
Wikipedia team as Director of Product. Eagle-eyed observers may have
noticed Amy already as a member of our Delft offsite
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Abstract_Wikipedia/Updates/2023-06-22>.
Amy will be responsible for product management and engineering for the team.
"I am super excited to be part of the Abstract Wikipedia team. I grew up in
Southern California and have worked in the software industry for over 20
years, half of that time in open source. I’ve worn many hats in my career,
but the common thread is that I love working with teams to build and ship
software. In my spare time I read, garden, and create social media posts
for my local animal shelter to help pets get adopted–a hobby that led me to
adopt a calico kitten last year!"
We look forward to working with Amy to bring our products to the community!
Monthly Volunteer's Corner July 10
Usually, the Volunteer’s Corner is on the first Monday of the month. Given
that this month this was on July 3, which was a holiday for a number of
team members, we had decided to move it to July 10th, at the usual time,
instead. Bring your questions and ideas!
The Volunteer’s Corner will be on July 10th, 2023, at 17:30 UTC
<https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1689010228> on Jitsi at
