I think it's great that organizations can show the faces behind all the effort related to managing communities and events, for sure you can do something similar in your community!

Thank you very much to Daria Linhart for handling this very cool initiative!

Mireu aquesta meravella de logo 😍 i ara imaginin els stickers que es faran :D

Introducing the PSF Community Partner Program The Python Software Foundation (PSF) is excited to announce the introduction of the PSF Community Partner Program. This new program is designed as an “in-kind” way for us to support Python events and initiatives with non-financial assistance through the use of the PSF logo and name, as well as promotional support via sharing qualified posts on PSF official social media accounts. The PSF looks forward to supporting Python community events and initiatives through this new program!The introduction of the PSF Community Partner Program grew out of our desire to find alternative ways to support the community during the pause of our Grants Program (read more about the resulting process below). Even so, we intend to continue offering this in-kind support program after the Grants Program reopens. Our big picture hope is that, over the long term, some community events and initiatives will continue to partner with the PSF while being financially dependent on sponsors and individual donors alone. The PSF is also working on the future of our Grants Program, including when and how we can reopen it in a way that ensures the program’s long-term sustainability while balancing the needs of the Python community. In light of the truly staggering outpouring of support from our community during the 2025 year-end fundraiser, we are now in a stronger position to reopen the Grants Program and are eager to give back in a thoughtful and sustainable way. More updates to come!As with the rollout of any new program, we anticipate small adjustments will need to be made for processes to flow smoothly and to ensure the program serves the Python community well. The PSF welcomes your comments, feedback, and suggestions regarding the new Community Partner Program on the corresponding Discuss thread. We also invite you to join our upcoming PSF Board or Grants Program Office Hour sessions to talk with the PSF Board and Staff synchronously. If you wish to send your feedback privately, please email grants@python.org. 

Introducing the PSF Community Partner Program! The PSF is very excited to announce this new in-kind offering that expands how we support Python community events and initiatives around the world, now and alongside future community support programs 💝🐍

The PSF continues to feel deeply grateful for the outpouring of support from the Python community before and during our 2025 year-end fundraiser. We put together this thank you video to share our appreciation and joy to be in community with each of you 🐍🫶

On the right side there is a blue color block and it says "BARNLP 2024 - Building up Academic Research at NLP", and underneath that is the PSF logo. On the bottom half of the image is a picture of a large group of people smiling and raising their hands. Overlayed is the campaign theme "Python is for Everyone". A white snake flows through the entire image.

Exploring the CPython JIT — Diego Russo YouTube video by EuroPython Conference

Now that @europython.eu talks are live, I want to plug some of the very cool things™ my friends presented:

Connecting the Dots: Understanding the PSF’s Current Financial Outlook As the PSF heads into our end-of-year fundraiser, we want to share information to help “connect the dots” and show a more complete picture of the PSF’s current financial outlook. You’ve heard from us on subjects related to our financial position from several different angles recently (a list of those posts is below). We’ve prioritized proactive communications, because we believe in transparency, we have trust in our community, and we value keeping you informed— we know how invested in and impacted by our work you are. We now want to pull those threads together in order to create some shared clarity on the big picture, and, hopefully, inspire you to action to support our fundraising efforts.  

As the PSF heads into our end-of-year fundraiser this month, we want to “connect the dots” and share a full picture of our current financial outlook: what’s happening, why, and how you can help sustain the future of Python and the PSF. 🧵

Improving security and integrity of Python package archives Security and integrity of the Python packaging ecosystem is critical, and the smallest unit of a packaging ecosystem is a "package". Python packages use existing archive formats like ZIP and tar to distribute Python projects to their users. Archives seem simple on the surface, but many ZIP and tar features can be abused to confuse implementations into seeing different contents of the same archive.

Archive formats like ZIP and tar can be abused to undermine the integrity of Python package users 📦 Learn how PSF Developer-in-Residence Seth Larson is strengthening Python's security with the #Python community in the new white paper "Slippery ZIPs and Sticky tar-pits" with Alpha-Omega:

Python Foundation rejects $1.5M grant with no-DEI strings : Foundation says it won't compromise policy of inclusivity even if that cash would've really helped

This headline, tho

"Python Foundation goes ride or DEI, rejects government grant with strings attached"

Getting funds by removing an important part of your mission statement should be a deal breaker for any non-profit. The PSF is not the first one in this position, and might not be the last. A "diverse international community" is something we should take care of.
