Dear All,

We are looking for members of The Carpentries community who are interested in 
helping to bring the Data Carpentry Image Processing with Python curriculum 
<https://datacarpentry.org/image-processing/> to a stable, published state. The 
lesson has been in development for a few years and is already a very good 
resource for those looking for an introduction to the skills needed when 
working with image data. This in an opportunity to help shape a lesson that 
will teach in-demand skills to a large audience of learners.

## How can you help?

The lesson is currently in an alpha state: it has been successfully taught on 
several occasions by the community members who have developed the content up to 
this point, with feedback incorporated after each pilot workshop. The purpose 
of this message is to call for community members with relevant background 
knowledge who would like to 

1. help implement some final touches to the lesson material, addressing open 
issues and any other improvements as they desire.
2. act as a Maintainer of the lesson after it has passed through beta testing 
and been published.

## How will you be supported?

In both cases, you will be supported in this work by members of the Curriculum 
Team. Anyone wishing to become a Maintainer for the lesson will be invited to 
join the upcoming round of Maintainer Onboarding, expected to begin in mid-July.

If you are interested in contributing in either or both of the ways described 
above, or if you would like any more information, please get in touch with me 
([email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>) before the end 
of Sunday 19 June. Please include a brief summary of your relevant experience 
with Python and/or working with image data.

## How will your contribution be acknowledged?

All contributors to the development of the lesson will be listed as an author 
when the publication is made on Zenodo; Maintainers will be listed as editors.

Many thanks,

Toby
