Hi! Mariatta pointed me here and I see you discussed Bevy and PyLadies. I was part of the group that set up the demo last year. A lot has changed since then, but what has not changed is that we would love to get PyLadies up and running on Bevy. I'd love to restart those conversations and get us all reconnected. @BethanyG what's the best way for us to reach each other?

[BethanyG]

@caffodian - Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. One of our council members, @trallard was going to reach out and set up a conversation/demo between Bevy and several of our chapter leads, but I don't know where she is with that. But if that has not already happened, I would very much like to chat and go over features, demo the product etc. I can be contacted at [email protected]. Thanks so much for reaching out.
