A
Hello,
hello,
everyone
I
I
realized,
I
didn't
write
speaker
notes
for
this
one,
so
I'm
just
kind
of
gonna
wing
it,
but
I
I
think
that
you
know,
as
we
walk
into
the
last
day
of
cubecon,
I
I
thought
it
would
be
nice
to
like
take.
You
know,
take
some
time
to
reflect
on
the
things
that
I've
been
working
on
in
the
past
things
that
I
want
to
do
next
in
my
life,
how
I
feel
about
the
community-
and
I
think
the
answer
is
I'm
tired.
A
A
So
I
wanted
to
like
do
a
quick
run-through
of
some
of
the
things
that
I've
been
working
on
in
the
past
and
trying
not
to
trip
on
stage
so
like
so
many
things.
One
of
the
first
things
I
did
was
co-chair
for
sig
azure
in
in
kubernetes
co-chair
for
sig
pm
co-chair
for
sig
release,
helped
co-create
the
kubernetes
enhancement
proposals
process
helps
build
the
release.
Engineering
subproject
was
a
new
membership
coordinator,
founded
working
group
naming
alongside
celeste
and
chase
and
and
zachary.
A
I
am
a
co-chair
for
tag
contributor
strategy.
I
helped
co-found
inclusive
naming
initiative
and
set
a
reminder
to
myself
to
stop
clicking
the
clicker.
So
I
say
all
this
to
say
that
I've
been
involved
in
quite
a
few
things
in
the
community
and
kind
of
across
the
the
cloud
native
ecosystem,
and
sometimes
you
gotta,
you
gotta,
stop
clicking
the
clicker,
so
first
off
slow
down
everything
that
you're
going
through
right
now.
A
All
right
how
many
people
are
looking
to
be
maintainers
at
some
point,
come
on
all
right,
so
I
want
you
to
stop.
I
want
you
to
slow
down.
I
want
you
to
recognize
that
a
lot
of
the
things
that
are
happening
today
in
your
life,
they're,
not
your
fault,
and
this
is
some
advice.
I
I
got
from
a
wonderful,
open
source
dragon
recently.
A
Burnout,
I
think
you
know
one
of
one
of
my
favorite
talks
was
a
panel
that
we
did
after
going
to
afrotubecon
seattle.
I
think
we
were
all
sitting
in
our
rooms,
blackout,
curtains,
shut,
tight
on
twitter,
just
tweeting
about
how
tired
we
were
running
from
running
from
event
to
event.
Talk
to
talk,
I
think
during
cubecon
seattle
I
did
six
or
seven
talks
and
it
was
like.
Oh
my
god,
I'm
so
happy
to
see
you
all
I've
never
seen
you
before.
A
I
you
only
existed
in
a
slack
thing
before
to
me
and
now
you're
real,
okay,
bye.
I
have
to
go,
do
a
talk
and
that
proceeded
for
a
while.
I
think
everyone
was
feeling
that
way
and
we
decided
to
get
together
and
do
a
panel.
So
we
did
that
panel,
the
last
day
at
in
kubecon
at
in
barcelona.
We
did
this
panel
twice
both
there
and
for
open
source
leadership
summit,
but
it's
huge.
You
have
probably
heard
since
then
a
million
talks
about
burnout.
A
It's
real
pay
attention
watch
out
for
the
signs,
I'm
not
going
to
go
into
it
because
again,
you've
seen
a
million
talks
about
this,
but
there
are
a
lot
of
things
going
on.
There's
social
unrest
in
the
world,
and
that
is
not
great.
There
there's,
you
know,
there's
so
many
opportunities
for
us
to
be
kinder
to
ourselves
kinder
to
the
people
around
us.
We
have
to
be
cognizant
of
that.
A
I've
been
looking
at
all
the
slides
this
week
and
I'm
like
wow,
I'm
good
at
riffing,
but
terrible
at
slides.
So
I'm
gonna
just
give
you
some
some
tips
stop
signing
up
for
things.
I
think
the
you
know.
One
of
the
songs
that
I
wanted
to
play
is
that
from
paramore
born
for
this
right,
and
I
think
that
this
community
is
so
special.
I
think
that
we
are.
A
It
leads
to
not
really
understanding
where
you
know
during
that
burnout
panel.
We
were
talking
about
like
the
the
lines
between
kubernetes.
I
do
for
work
and
kubernetes
I
do
for
play
or
the
working
14
hours
as
an
sre
or
signing
up
for
so
many
projects
that
you,
you
can't
really
maintain.
Any
of
them
effectively
stop
signing
up
for
things.
Don't
feel
that
you
need
to
be
the
person
who
does
that
thing?
Every
time-
and
I
see
a
few
of
my
friends
making
faces
right
now.
A
We
need
to
figure
out
ways
to
scale
ourselves
so
christoph
and
paris
talked
quite
a
bit
about
contributor.
Experience
talked
about
the
over
long-term
strategy
for
the
community
talked
about
the
release.
Team
talked
about.
You
know,
kind
of
some
of
the
techniques
that
we've
built
into
the
process
to
to
ensure
that
we're
not
the
only
ones
working
on
these
things
right.
A
So
I
would
say
I
would
say
one
of
the
things
that
I've
noticed
that
is,
that
has
been
most
difficult
for
me
is
recognizing
that
we
don't
have
an
easy
path
kind
of
in
any
of
these
communities
to
move
from
contributor
to
maintainer,
and
there
is
a
there
is
a
significant
gap
right
between
like
I
can
do
the
thing.
I've
built
a
process
to
help
people
to
do
the
thing,
and
this
is
something
that
I'm
recognizing
in
my
you
know
in
my
new
role,
I
have
this
contributor
hat.
A
I
have
this
maintainer
hat,
but
I've
also
got
this
like
sponsorship.
Hat
right,
like
a
new
foundation,
has
opened-
and
you
must
do
this
and
give
this
money
and
talk
to
this
person
and
put
someone
on
a
board
and
yada
yada
right
or
you
have
to
read
this
proposal
or
someone
wants
to
open
source
this
project
internally
and
it's
something
you've
never
done
before.
A
You
know
day-to-day
things
that
I
that
I
get
to
do
or
that
I
get
to
like
oversee
in
the
community
and
prior
to
that
I
would.
I
would
try
to
pop
into
the
release
team
as
they
were,
as
they
were
starting
up
and
say.
Hey,
I
give
this
crazy
speech.
I'm
like
we're
going
to
tear
down
the
release
team.
It's
like
we're
going
to
build
processes
and
tools
that
are
so
cool
that
we're
never
going
to
need
a
release
team
anymore
like
never.
A
That
hasn't
happened
yet,
and
I
I've
been
giving
that
speech
for
like
multiple
years
at
this
point,
so
I
stopped
giving
the
speech-
and
I
and
I
haven't
had
the
time
that
I
wanted
to
to
spend
with
the
release
team,
but
I
also
don't
need
to
anymore
we've.
We've
got
like
all
of
these
awesome
contributors
that
have
been
in
sig
release
that
there's
some
things
that
happen,
and
I
read
about
them
later.
I'm,
like,
oh,
my
god,
that's
so
cool.
A
A
There's
there
are
things
that
we're
going
to
miss.
There's
things
that
we're
going
to
miss
they're
things
that
we
are
at
least
out
of
the
way
for
that.
We
can't
see
everything.
We
can't
do
everything
so
figure
out
ways
to
whatever
project
you're
working
on
whatever
you
know.
What-
and
this
is
not
even
this
is
not
even
just
open
source.
This
is
also
in
in
your
own
life
right.
A
So
I
I
say
to
maintainers-
and
this
is
my
last
slide-
I'm
again
just
riffing
with
you
all
so
I
say
to
maintainers:
try
to
figure
out
what
fills
that
gap
from
contributor
to
maintainer
because,
as
you
try
to
teach-
and
you
try
to
do
that,
one-on-one
mentoring-
there
are
only
so
many
people.
You
can
do
it,
for
there
are
only
so
many
people.
You
can
do
it
with
right
and
if
you
try
to
take
that,
if
you
try
to
take
that
individual
approach
with
everyone,
we're
going
to
go
back
to
that
burnout
slide
right.
A
Ask
in
the
channel
or
check
out
this
video
that
we
recorded
or
read
these
documents
that
we
we
hacked
up
just
now
right
you,
you
create
opportunities
for
contribution.
You
create
opportunities
for
people
to
ask
questions
that
you
maybe
made
the
assumption
that
everyone
knew,
or
you
maybe
made
the
assumption
that
only
you
can
do
so.
A
I
I
leave
you
with
figure
out
ways
to
scale
yourself
figure
out
ways
to
scale
that
burden
from
moving
from
contributor
to
maintainer,
because
the
I
think
the
the
imminent
threat
that
we
have
for
so
many
of
these
communities
or
maintainers
are
burning
out.
Maintainers
are
burning
out
and
we
don't
understand
how
to
put
people
in
those
seats
to
continue
the
work
so
especially
for
some
of
the
people
that
I've
chatted
with
this
week.
About
this,
please
take
care
of
yourself.
