We've released mystmd 1.6.1! 🎉 This update includes a new "Edit this page" feature that takes you directly to GitHub for editing. We also squashed some bugs related to Typst PDF and list elements, and made several docs improvements! Release notes 👉 github.com/jupyter-book/m…

How should an organization support open source? A key goal for 2i2c is to lead by example in contributing to a healthy open source ecosystem. We've learned a lot over the years - here's our framework for building healthy open source relationships. 👉 2i2c.org/blog/2025/good…

We've been experimenting and improving our practices in building healthy relationships with open source communities, here's our latest thinking on how we approach this important topic!

Here's an update for the Jupyter Community about what stood out from my view on the Executive Council in August. tl;dr, we finally have a call for proposals for community funding! I suspect this will take most of time for the next month or two. discourse.jupyter.org/t/chris-update…

We are gonna have to get a lot better at writing quick n dirty blog posts! 😅

JupyterCon 2025 has an early-bird registration discount that ends October 3rd! Get your tickets now, and check out the schedule below events.linuxfoundation.org/jupytercon/pro…

Pooja Looks like travel funding is closed but there's scholarships for registration here: events.linuxfoundation.org/jupytercon/att…

If you aggregate the unique weekly visitors from jupyter.org, docs.jupyter.org, and mybinder.org, and multiply that by 52 weeks, you get about *16 million unique visitors to Jupyter websites each year*. Wild. Check it out 👉 plausible.io/jupyter.org

Do I have any colleagues that would let me borrow their apartment in NYC the weekend of October 8th? :-)

LLMs can be a useful partner in conversation, but don't forget they are also sycophantic and reluctant to challenge you. Apparently this is leading to relationship breakups because their LLMs convince people they're utterly in the right. futurism.com/chatgpt-marria…

TIL the Jupyter Community Forum at discourse.jupyter.org gets like 600,000 user visits a month!

Would love feedback from anybody that follows along with this post series - doing leadership in open source often feels like invisible work, so this is one attempt at making is a bit more visible!

One of our team goals last quarter was improving "demonstrable reliability" of our infrastructure - we've learned that making the cloud safe, predictable, and reliable is a key thing our member communities need to make the most use of their hubs

🚨 The deadline for Jupyter Community Funding Proposals (blog.jupyter.org/your-ideas-our…) has been extended to October 5th, 2025 ( by one week). We've got a few great-looking proposals in the works (github.com/orgs/jupyter-g…), so you've all got another 7 days to write!

Million dollar idea: A bot that joins every of your Slack/Zoom/Meet videos for the first 3 minutes and debugs everybody's microphone and video problems immediately.

How should organizations support open source communities? We're moving from scattered individual efforts to strategic team-based contributions that strengthen upstream communities like JupyterHub 🚀 👉 2i2c.org/blog/2025/foun…

Our new approach to foundational open source contributions focuses on two key objectives: increasing casual but returning contributors AND growing the number of maintainers in communities like JupyterHub.

This post describes the system we're piloting to provide team-wide contributions to open source projects that are strategic and impactful ✨. It's a follow-up to 2i2c.org/blog/2025/good…, which described our goals in being a Good Upstream Citizen for 2i2c.

We've learned that our member communities care a *lot* about cloud cost transparency and reliability, so we're working hard to drill down into user data about costs and usage for community leaders to access.
