The end of October was the second time I went to US to attend GitHub Universe in person after the 2023 edition, and this time was the tenth anniversary of the event itself happening in a new San Francisco venue: Fort Mason.
I'm staying in the GitHub Stars program for another year! I wasn't sure this will be extended for the fourth time, since at the very beginning the plan was to have any given Star for a maximum of three years in the program and then automatically turn them into an alumni.
I'm happy and proud to say that my GitHub Star status was renewed for the third year, extending my stay in the program for the whole 2023!
I'm happy to report that after being awarded the GitHub Star status last year, and going through the verification process at the beginning of 2022, I was renewed for the second year in the program.
I'm honored to be listed among the fine folks of the GitHub Stars program, which gathers shining individuals from the world’s largest open source community, though I still think I got mistaken for someone else.
