Hello, SUMO Nation!
Good to see you again. How are you keeping? Planning something nice for the upcoming weekend? We hope so! Here are the most recent updates from the world of SUMO.
Welcome, new contributors!
Most recent SUMO Community meeting
- Reminder: WE HAVE MOVED TO WEDNESDAYS!
- You can read the notes here and see the video on our YouTube channel and at AirMozilla.
The next SUMO Community meeting…
- …is happening on WEDNESDAY the 16th of March – join us!
- Reminder: if you want to add a discussion topic to the upcoming meeting agenda:
- Start a thread in the Community Forums, so that everyone in the community can see what will be discussed and voice their opinion here before Wednesday (this will make it easier to have an efficient meeting).
- Please do so as soon as you can before the meeting, so that people have time to read, think, and reply (and also add it to the agenda).
- If you can, please attend the meeting in person (or via IRC), so we can follow up on your discussion topic during the meeting with your feedback.
Developers
- Important announcement: Kitsune development is currently entering maintenance mode due to changes in the developer group – we’ll keep you posted as the situation develops. If you have questions or concerns about this, please contact us via the forum.
- The latest SUMO Platform meeting notes can be found here.
- Do you want to help us build Kitsune (the engine behind SUMO)? Read more about it here and fork it on GitHub!
Community
- Time for another blog post by someone who’s not me (how refreshing :-)) – tune in tomorrow to hear from Ghaith and the Tunisian community! I hear there will be cookies (at least in the photos)
- Want to help us figure out how to deal with IRC, Telegram, and all that jazz? Jump into this thread!

Ongoing reminder: if you think you can benefit from getting a second-hand device to help you with contributing to SUMO, you know where to find us.
