Whoever has karma will need to make it so. I don't know how many "events" ASF participates in aside from ApacheCon but if any of them are well known, for example OSCON, I would think they deserve a mention. I, personally, do not keep up with this, but I'm sure someone does. So, I would propose an "Events" page to keep tract of some of these. "ApacheCon" would, of course, be one very important event. > > On Thu, Jul 24, 2014 at 7:09 PM, Kay Schenk <kay.sch...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Some of us just received a nice little summary from Melissa on the ASF's > > activities at OSCON -- kudos to everyone on all this! > > > > However, on looking at the ASF main home page, http://www.apache.org/, > > events of any kind are not easily found.
