We've got good registrations already and some great sponsors. And we have a great volunteer team (pic related).

I’m on my way to the @cloudnativegeo.org conference, sporting my OG cloud native geospatial hoodie from 2020!
Looking forward to meeting new people and being absolutely humbled by what people are doing.
Also running a workshop Thursday morning, teaching some CNG for EO.

Got a new M4 Macbook Pro and somehow I have Python chewing up 100 GB in one process and 30 GB in another and the machine is just super happy, smooth as silk. Getting a bit hot doing some kind of neural network prediction stuff, but sailing through!
