Hi friends!!! Media will come back soon!!!!

well.

....E3 Good.

that's all im gonna say

But do we really have enough coders? According to the survey, as well as people who reached out in person, yes, yes we do.

We have 50 people who say they can contribute with code. 20+ people who can contribute with Governance of software of organization. Others want to help with experience, money, emotional support, resources. (hover photo!)

Some of the "other:" responses were: Testing, Sysadmin, Code Review, Copywriting, Mentoring new contributors, Security/Penetration testing.

#ForkOff

And last, but definitely not least. Hours! (Which I may or may not have entirely forgotten to prep the text for) .

We have a _good_ distribution of how many hours people can contribute per month!

I am so happy that you all want to #ForkOffTogether, not with me, but with each other. <3

Thank you! More meeting info will come out soon™

I felt this next question was important to ask, and that we needed to think about it for a bit for ourselves.

Willing to try and give others fresh starts?
75% without hesitation said Yes, to trying to offer others a fresh start.

I knew that I had been controversial in some contexts for #MastoDev, and I wanted people to be willing to give me, and others a fresh start.

I hope that anyone can find someone in the project that they trust, make their voices heard that way.

#ForkOffTogether

Some of the people who answered to this survey have already been involved in #MastoDev or a #Fork.

Overall, people want to either make a new fork, or maybe contribute to an existing one. I know that #glitchsocial was the most popular suggested fork, which is appreciated, but @bea made it clear that we wont find governance there. That said, the fork could still be from Glitch-soc and build on the good features they've already helped provide to a fair share of the #fediverse.

#ForkOffTogether

Actually over 100 people (109 responses to the survey) wanted to #ForkOffTogether. And all in all we had 171

To put that in perspective of the 470 contributors that #Mastodon has had on the GitHub repo, I feel like we have a solid base to go from here.

Some of the comments even suggested that "No I don't want to, but we need to", explaining why they ticked No.

Devolver, you magnificent bastards, no one can ever top you—and I wouldn’t want anyone to try.
