'Sup my lovelies


Sorry this newsletter is a tad late. I went straight from Opn Source Diversity hack day on Saturday to London and ended up not getting to my friends til 3am. Needless to say I needed some time off! Also to get my head in the game for Mozfest, whih is already proving to be a roaring success...let me tell you why.



Last week:

   - YC incubator didn't want us to go for interviews. There loss.

   - Worked really hard with @Matteo to get the new repo ready for Mozfest. It's called study-online-misogyny and is our data science

   - Added CI to that repo and also in the process of getting CI in the browser extension front-end. MAssive shout-out to @Sarach Wachs !

   - Added issues for Mozfest

   - The new popup looks incredible and we built this at the Open Source Diversity hackday. Either pull the repo or check the video

   -


This week:

   - Met the editor of the internet health report for Mozilla and her team member. In reponse to my question "How can we get involved with Mozilla Berlin" she responded with "send me an email"

   - Met the head researcher from the BBC R&D who wants us to keep in contact about our inclusivity KPIs and another of his team memembers about accountability online

   - Met someone who is will to help me apply for an Open Leaders and give us loadas of great advice about monetizing this as a Non Profit

   - I bumped into a Mozilla employee who told me that our project was being spoken about on their slack channel last night!

   - Got an offer from Factmata to get some funding

   - JosephRoundtree Foundation and OpenSociety as ideas for funding bodies


There's a lot more to say, but I am incredibly tired right now so I'll try and do an update in two days to keep you all updated with how things are progressing and I am AIMING with all my might to get us some money....and maybe it's not too far away


Best,
