I&#39;ve talked / posted about this at length in the past and shared a blog post on the topic last year [2].

A planned and graceful transition can be difficult for a lot of people, but I read Jay&#39;s post as an opportunity to think on that deliberately and avoid the more drama-filled alternative of someone clinging onto their role long after it&#39;s outgrown them.

If you&#39;ve attempted to register as a PSF member (of any membership tier), have had trouble doing so for whatever reason, and are willing to share your experience, please PM me. My goal with this post is to remove barriers to entry, especially for membership tiers with voting privileges, and having more anecdotes will help me craft a better post. 2024-08-29T01:08:04Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqstfdjecxxd3q5kvgmumjyr3d2l6jfage23623ulca8xj2ls4rr8pqzyrt3qd3rlx3wufjk0hcqe757kxzt26d6uk323vzhl9mhe7rvm4f629c04ef <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1vv848aca8vpv9lt2l2tj6wwehw7drwrs2e3ev9693rwz02jh448qcc6fhk" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Python Software Foundation</span> (<span class="italic">npub1vv8…6fhk</span>)</a></span> Is there an issue tracker / place to contribute to <a href="https://psfmember.org/">https://psfmember.org/</a>?

I&#39;ve finally replaced them with a lower-profile (even lower-profile than the original hard plastic wheels) polyurethane set, and I notice an immediate improvement. Not perfect, but definitely better. 2024-07-30T21:22:59Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsd863vgundxf3em7q59kf24fs4kdjldta27yrngx0h8ylr3twy8fszyrt3qd3rlx3wufjk0hcqe757kxzt26d6uk323vzhl9mhe7rvm4f62gvlrf2 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs23ydp3v47rqhnurxm38dp06kz9hg4d0077hwj2tq9dmx7phgel5cac4a3f'>nevent1q…4a3f</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Glad I&#39;m not the only one deferring to that FAQ.<br/><br/>It&#39;s good to know that the PSF is aware of the issues.

The angle that I haven&#39;t seen brought up as much: the PSF&#39;s actions and endorsements have real power that extend beyond the PSF itself. Community organizers throw around the question &#34;what does PyCon US do?&#34; *a lot* when they have decisions to make. A PSF Fellowship is a pretty strong signal that someone would be a great addition to a Python community (of which there are many). 2024-06-21T23:34:13Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsrwq42tuywkma0t4z6959lylkp0j4v9r64qeeh43n7wqgmryxdgjczyrt3qd3rlx3wufjk0hcqe757kxzt26d6uk323vzhl9mhe7rvm4f62klwq0c In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswdwhh9axq3yjyla8se897asyzdyvlftqzv8x5grm84ald4plv3wgtp3k2p'>nevent1q…3k2p</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>This is not something presented as &#34;person did a good thing once&#34;, it&#39;s a lifetime credential that should include the expectation to continue to follow the Code of Conduct. This is not a high bar. No one is asking that Fellows continue doing extraordinary work (although plenty of them do), just to maintain the basic conduct that is expected of all community members. 2024-06-21T23:28:40Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqswdwhh9axq3yjyla8se897asyzdyvlftqzv8x5grm84ald4plv3wgzyrt3qd3rlx3wufjk0hcqe757kxzt26d6uk323vzhl9mhe7rvm4f62v7sast I have a more verbose blog post about this that I may or may not publish, but tl;dr: the PSF being able to make endorsements that someone is &#34;an example of what we aspire to be in the Python community&#34; but unable to revoke them for Code of Conduct reasons is a problem. Many people view PSF Fellowships as a Big Deal™, and the title carries weight. 2024-06-21T23:26:43Z
