Hi community,

Hacktoberfest is coming up. If you're not familiar with it, it is an event that encourages people to make their first contributions to open source projects. It's for developers, designers who make artwork and people can contribute in the form of documentation as well. Community members can are encouraged to help new contributors by guiding them through their first contribution, creating educational content, doing a meetups, etc.

I would like to help coordinate the efforts for openSUSE’s presence during Hacktoberfest and need some help from the community members.

Is anyone willing to help guide/plan or bring in new members to the various openSUSE-related projects?

I could create a few livestreams during October for openQA and maybe other projects, similar to the two that I have done so far.

We can do a meeting or focus on marketing or something?

I think it would be beneficial if we provide a good platform for virtual hacktoberfest meetups given the reality of the covid pandemic, that the community could use.
