How do we obtain the funds. Glad to do a sprint in Ghana this year. Would make available options to join online. There's another Ghanaian we saw on Mavericks call but I can't find him anymore. Please let me know if you're here. We can collaborate
@zee-moz and @stephwright I found that the template is not updated here https://github.com/acabunoc/mozsprint-repo-template can I know where can I find the latest one?
We've announced the Mozilla-Library Carpentry Global Sprint https://twitter.com/LibCarpentry/status/1111344572150530051
@BhuvanaMeenakshiK since we have a more flexible format for the Sprint for Internet Health this year, sprinters can use any platform they'd like to coordinate collaborations. We didn't release a new GitHub template this year, and we won't be maintaining a central repo of all projects. Instead, projects and sites can list on pulse, using this link https://mzl.la/sprint4pulse
Hope this helps!
@Botsyoelily I think @stephwright can answer your questions about funding
Hi @Botsyoelily … It depends on what you’re seeking funding for. If it’s for a venue, reach out to your local community to see if anyone has access to a space they’re willing to provide for your sprint. If you’re looking for snacks for your participants, I’d reach out to local small businesses to see if any of them would be willing to donate funding. As @BhuvanaMeenakshiK mentioned above, if you’re a Mozilla Rep, there’s the possibility of getting funding from the Reps program.
Anyone else on here have suggestions?
Hi, I was referred here by one David Ross upon mentioning my interest in new search and discovery technologies. In how they can enhance people's control over the process and their privacy. I have no experience hosting an event, but I have a project and an idea for a somewhat-related event.
Hi @alcinnz … Have you had a chance to look at @zee-moz ’s Open Events Guide: https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/opportunity/open-events-guide/
It’s quite a ways up the chat.
How does an event exploring applications of the OpenSearch and SKOS standards sound? Or domain-specific search more generally?
Though I'm starting to find some people interested in the general topic, so maybe I'll be more ready next year.
OH, Maybe "sprintforih" is the lable/topic?

Hi @/all ! Our sprint has started early and you can see some of the tweets here https://twitter.com/search?q=%23lc2019%20%23mozsprint&src=typd. We are seeing a lot of interest in developing FAIR material https://www.go-fair.org/fair-principles/ We've already had some material developed https://librarycarpentry.org/Top-10-FAIR/ Just added one for astronomy and now one of our community members is interested in doing one for imaging https://twitter.com/orchid00/status/1128198201998098432 Please join her if you can. As always, we've also started work on the lessons https://librarycarpentry.org/lessons/ More info about the main sprint at the end of the month https://librarycarpentry.org/blog/2019/03/lc-mozilla-global-sprint/
