What comes to mind when you hear the word accessibility? Users with disabilities? Blind folks trying to access web applications? The deaf community?
All these people may come to mind when thinking of accessibility, but to really get people on board, we need to think of the CEO one handing a mobile device while picking up a coffee in midtown Manhattan. We need to make it a personal story.

We often vaunt the greatness of Open Source and skirt some of the lesser seen issues while focusing on the greatness of the communities we are a part of. What is it like for solo maintainers? Can we set our expectations on people writing code on nights and weekends, people who have other aspects to their lives? How do we keep vulnerable people in Open Source safe?
Fortunately, our guest for this episode, Penelope Phippen, has navigated these waters. Penelope is the maintainer of a rubyfmt, rspec, and is involved in Rust, while also working as a full-time engineer and on the Board of Directors at Ruby Central. That said, there is so much more to Penelope than her job description. Like her Battlesnake Twitch stream. Give a listen to someone with experience in so many aspects of the Open Source world.

It's tradition that Mattermost hosts a conference to celebrate our successes, growth, and the passing of another great year. MatterCon has long been a part of Mattermost's community. With the changes brought by the pandemic, we began to wonder when MatterCon would happen again.
Fortunately, a team including Hanna Park, Emily Cook, Justin Reynolds, and PJ Hagerty was able to build Virtual Reality Mattercon. This episode covers some of the ideas that went into making a truly virtual conference, making it possible for Mattermost staff, contributors, and community members to work and interact like they would at MatterCon. All recorded straight from the VR MatterCon stage with a live audience!
NOTE: There are some audio discrepancies as we learned to record in VR :)
Hackathons are great events that often bring a community together. Through code and experiences, everyone benefits. What if you could grow that benefit for all parties involved?
