A
Hey
everyone,
it's
a
pleasure
to
be
here,
live
in
austin.
It's
just
been
amazing
to
have
23
000
people
attending
kubecon
this
time
around.
This
is
truly
one
of
my
favorites.
You
know
activities
for
the
conference.
You
know
towards
the
tail
end
of
this.
Let
me
go
share
my
screen
really
quick,
so
we
can
get
started
with
the
awards.
A
All
righty,
so
I
am
you
know,
absolutely
stoked
to
present
these
every
year
it's
been
truly
an
honor
to
serve
this
community
for
the
last
five
years.
Really,
since
you
know
day
zero,
you
know,
as
I
was
talking
to
everyone
you
know
through
slack
twitter
and
all
these
different
communication
mediums.
You
know
it
really
kind
of
dawned
on
me
that
you
know
community
is
truly
a
precious
thing.
You
know
I
saw
this
tweet
from
leia
that
you
know
jokingly
most
valuable
cloud
native.
A
You
know,
foundation
project
is
our
community
and
I
somewhat
agree,
there's
so
many
folks
that
do
an
amazing
job
ensuring
that
our
community
is
welcome.
Well,
above
and
beyond
normal,
you
know
normal
day-to-day
responsibilities,
so
I'm
just
you
know,
totally
share
this
sentiment,
and
you
know
thank
everyone
that
you
know
goes
above
and
beyond
in
making
sure
this
is
a
welcome
place,
given
especially
how
much
we
have
grown
over
the
years
to
encompass
different
projects,
different
domains,
different
countries
and
and
everything
so
to
kind
of
kick
things
off.
A
Our
first
award
to
hand
out
is
our
top
ambassador
award.
Our
ambassadors
are
our
folks
who
represent
you,
know
the
community
in
public
through
giving
talks,
organizing
events
and
so
on.
If
you
see
the
previous
list
of
award
winners
here,
we
truly
have
an
amazing
set
of
folks
from
you
know,
kelsey
being
the
og
ambassador
to
lucas.
I
think
he
was
maybe
like
17
at
the
time
when
he
won
that
award
to
sarah
michael
and
laffy,
all
just
fantastic
people.
For
this
time
around.
A
I'm
excited
that
you
know
the
top
ambassador
for
2020
is
an
amazing
person.
They
have
been
promoting
the
you
know:
let's
call
the
art
of
improving
cloud
native
security
across
our
ecosystem
throughout
the
last
couple
years,
so
I
would
like
to
congratulate
ian
coldwater
on
winning
this.
You
know
award
this
year,
so
hopefully
we
could
go
pop
out
and
see
her
really
quickly
and
she
could
wave.
A
A
A
A
We
will
move
on
wonderful,
entrado,
giving
us
wonderful
issues
today.
So
let's
keep
on
rolling
with
our
awards.
Thank
you
again.
They
have
been
an
amazing
ambassador
for
us
all.
So.
A
All
right,
thank
you
ian
all
right.
Our
next
set
of
awards
are
dedicated
to
top
committers
and
maintainers.
These
are
folks
who
have
put
forth
and
done
an
amazing
job
in
the
community
in
terms
of
supporting
projects
that
are
involved,
and
we
just
have
a
fantastic
set
of
folks
that
span
communities
prometheus
and
a
variety
of
projects.
A
This
year
the
maintainers
existing
containers
have,
you
know,
nominated
a
set
of
folks
and
decided
to
award
this
special
honor
to
ben
elder
from
the
kubernetes
community.
I'm
not
sure
if
many
of
you
know
ben
is
one
of
the
primary
authors
of
kind,
a
tool
that
I
you
know,
love
and
and
use
quite
quite
often,
and
is
just
one
of
the
most
helpful
people
in
the
community
answering
a
variety
of
questions.
A
A
Our
final
set
of
awards,
which
I
think
you
know
kind
of,
are
our
most
important
set
of
awards
truly
represent
one
of
our
values,
the
most
important
values
in
the
planning
community,
and
this
is
around
chopping,
wood
and
carrying
water.
For
those
of
you
who
are
not
familiar
the
phrase,
these
are
essentially
all
the
things
that
happen.
You
know
behind
the
scenes
from
things
like
improving,
you
know
build
times.
You
know
performance
generally,
not
kind
of
feature
facing
work
truly
stuff.
A
That
kind
of
keeps
everything
functional
and
we
just
had
an
amazing
set
of
folks
that
have
contributed
over
time
in
this
and
this
year,
I'm
happy
to
announce
our
next
slate
of
folks
that
have
been
nominated
and
voted

A
So

boyd,
