Hi folks, bump that this post is scheduled for publication this Thursday and could use a final review + LGTM from the comms WG.

Also, can we confirm that we can publish the post at the same time the Google blog post is going live? (9AM PT on the Thursday the 11th). Thanks!

Hi folks, just a heads up that the Linux Foundation is going to help us with some PR/press on this announcement, you may see some comments by folks from their PR firm (storychangesculture.com) in the draft.

Betsy drafted this post, I think it would be helpful to have Comms contribute/review before it's published.

We are waiting for the funds to actually arrive (should be soon) and to coordinate with the publication of these posts.

Hey Katie and Jannis -

At the end of 2020, Google graciously decided to award $350k to the PSF for some packaging work and funding to help hire a core developer. The funding hasn't come in yet but we are preparing for when that time comes.

Attached is Google's blog in PDF format for review. If possible, maybe Dustin can give you both access to the google doc itself.
