    continues to strive for self-improvement and renewal. Treasury
    teamsprints, bank visits, and legal consultations during in-person meetings
    have helped keep the wheels turning. An overhaul of our corporate bylaws
    that better meets our needs is being presented to the members for their
    approval. And we have improved our reimbursement workflow with a view
    toward speedier and smoother processing.    "

    Introducing Season of Docs
    Google Open Source has announced
    Season of Docs. "During Season of Docs, technical writers will spend a few months working closely with open source communities. Each writer works with their chosen open source project. The writers bring their expertise to the projects’ documentation while at the same time learning about open source and new technologies.

    Mentors from participating open source organizations share knowledge of
    their communities’ processes and tools. Together the technical writers and
    mentors build a new doc set, improve the structure of the existing docs,
    develop a much-needed tutorial, or improve contribution processes and
    guides.    " Open source organizations may apply to take part in Season
    of Docs starting April 2.

    Announcing the release of sway 1.0
    Drew DeVault has announced
    the first stable release of sway, an i3-compatible Wayland desktop for
    Linux and FreeBSD. "Sway 1.0 adds a huge variety of features which were sorely missed on 0.x, improves performance in every respect, offers a more faithful implementation of Wayland, and exists as a positive political force in the Wayland ecosystem pushing for standardization and cooperation among Wayland projects."
