 This webinar, we're going to go through the mentorship program that we had around onboarding for Hyperledger. I'm John Carpenter, I run the Denver Meetup Group, and I'm also involved in the Hyperledger onboarding task force. And so I've had the pleasure these past six months to work with Ankesha as a mentee and really explore the ways that we can increase engagement in the Hyperledger community through some additional enhancements to onboarding and working on the Hyperledger website and really doing some enhancements to get the word out and having new people come into the community. And one of the things I've always liked about Hyperledger is how open and welcoming the community is and how much we can bring new people into the community that are interested in learning more about Hyperledger, or even becoming a contributor like Ankesha is now and becoming a really a long-term member of the Hyperledger community. So Ankesha has done a lot of hard work and dedication to the mentorship, and I would like her to kind of go through and talk about her journey. And I think the perfect thing that she's titled her presentation here is a journey because it has been and really highlight some of the things that she's done for the community and also to look at what she's achieved in the mentee ship and how she feels about working in the Hyperledger community going forward. So at this point Ankesha I'd like to turn it over to you and why don't you tell us a little bit about your journey as a mentee in 2023. Thank you so much John. I hope I'm audible to everyone and I'm very honored today to present my six month journey to all of you and John had been my mentor along with Peter and Niko throughout my mentorship and I want to like I'll tell this later on but right now also I want to give gratitude and just appreciate John for supporting me throughout my mentorship journey because he has been there like in every call with me and has helped me to work upon things and never you know he was even busy then he scheduled call later on so it was a I don't think so without him I would have been able to like complete my journey so smoothly so beautifully and these six months had been so fruitful for me because of him. So thank you John for that and yeah I'll begin my session now so a very good morning good evening like we are from like from whichever time zone you are greetings to all of you myself Akanksha Rani I am an upcoming software engineering intern at Microsoft and I have been LFX 20 2023 at Hyperledger and I've I've been an open source since a long time now so LFX was the first program that given that gave me exposure in open source and and it let me expand my realm of you know interest in open source and it had been a very proud phase of my life that I got in LFX so now I'll talk about my journey a bit so yeah so for today's session I'll not only tell about my journey but I'll also help you out you know if you are planning to join Hyperledger under LFX for the upcoming semester like it's like the new cohort will be starting soon so I really hope that after seeing my journey it you'll also you all will also be interested in joining Hyperledger community if you are already not there and I'll try to help you out as well and if you are watching me and like I want I'll try my best to put up my experiences which might help you also so starting my LFX journey so like well I was searching for organizations I came up with Hyperledger and the main reason was I had a bit of interest in blockchain and it is a blockchain based organization so I just wanted to try out the different type of projects in there so I applied to three projects in in Hyperledger one was Hyperledger documentation one was Hyperledger onboarding and one was Hyperledger Pippin so in these all three projects I had most like most contribution in Hyperledger onboarding and documentation so I had actually worked upon two different projects like I tried to maintain the work in between but my main project was Hyperledger onboarding and this like the LFX program like under Hyperledger has dedicated like it has helped me to delve in the interacities of you know and with the onboarding system like how can I use the access to different personas who are coming to Hyperledger site so that has been of my part so this is just the way that I had applied to Hyperledger like the way first of all that I applied and I wrote a cover letter and in which I laid down my experiences and all so while searching upon different organizations in Hyperledger these were the different projects which are ongoing in Hyperledger and I was very much interested in all the in the diverse range of projects Hyperledger was providing I was really very excited to know that that I have so many options so by searching up for projects I learned a lot about different projects like ADs, Bay Zero, Half-Irefly and all then moving forward so I'll just show you my what were the my like work what was exactly the work that I did throughout my Hyperledger journey so basically just one second give me one second so yeah so Hyperledger onboarding mentor mentee program has been a profound exploration for me like this program dedicated to enhance the user experience for newcomers and become a catalyst and it also became the catalyst for my transformative six-month mentorship in this in this session I'll delve into the different aspects of the onboarding project and the impactful mentorship and the lessons that I learned throughout so general objective of my project was enhancing the user experience for newcomers and develop a comprehensive onboarding plan with key like with the derivatives and the core concept of my project was based on onboarding of new people on Hyperledger so my major contribution was to you know to craft a detailed onboarding project plan and implement them for like I had I also had the you know privilege to work with Ben throughout my journey in the in the user experience part because he was he was the main person who was working on the new Hyperledger interface so he also assigned some tasks to me and he was the one that told us that we all need all this stuff we all need all these deliverables from you like if you can help us out there so following on that John had helped me to understand the problem statement exactly what I exactly had to do so then the first thing that that we did in our project was we made a spreadsheet I'll show you the spreadsheet as well so this was the basically my project spreadsheet in which I mainly worked upon so I had researched a lot for this like for creating this sheet in this sheet basically we have two different sections one is for start here guide page for Hyperledger and one is for the YouTube videos so what what my work exactly was throughout that I had to research upon the latest and most popular YouTube videos which are which are relevant for the new users like for if someone comes at Hyperledger and he like if he wants to learn more about Hyperledger then what will be what what are the different ideas tutorials YouTube videos and different useful stuff that and resources that the user can go through so I created this research spreadsheet in there in which like if you can see the red mark so John had helped me out along with Niku to filter out all the relevant videos and relevant or even old videos which are not relevant to put in on the site right now I had created the sheet and so they helped me down and this list was finally prepared in which we had the latest videos in past one year which helped us to understand that what is what exactly is required in there so I'll just show you you one more just one second yeah so if you see the Hyperledger if you just go to the Hyperledger site so we have a start here guide in there right so this is the main page where you know a person who is who comes to Hyperledger site he bends upon so if you can see there are different sections in there but if as I am a beginner and I don't know anything about Hyperledger if I come in there so in today's world videos are the main attraction for anyone like someone does not have time to read a lot so he or she goes to a video tutorial or stuff so this idea was proposed by Arun and first Arun told me that if you can do that then John guided me to that yeah you can prepare a video grid for all these stuff so if you can see so this community community video section so I had integrated this section under the guidance of Arun who is the GitHub maintainer of the Hyperledger community like he's the member of TOC and he's also maintains the all the GitHub repositories and also along with Rai Rai was also there who helped me out in setting up my maintainer account in GitHub and all so along with them I worked upon integrating on the recent and the most popular videos of Hyperledger community so that if a beginner comes in there it is easier for him or her to know about Hyperledger in the easiest way possible so this was the first part that I did upon the research work and integration part so for this I had learned different languages like markdown language was usually not what I like coded in it was not very like not very easy for me earlier but once Arun told me that yeah it is not that difficult so I learned this tech stack like it was a new it was new for me but because it was an mentorship project so this was a new skill that I gained through my Hyperledger journey that how can you integrate sites using markdown language so now moving back to my spreadsheet so yeah so this was the first part that I would worked upon now moving forward like as I said that you know the in this journey it was a significant facet for to involve GitHub GitHub contributions under the guidance of Arun so I learned not I did not learn only like the non-technical stuff but even technical stuff at the same ratio so it was very like I was very glad to be a part of this project now moving forward to the second part that I worked upon it was Hyperledger I had to create research upon and for this I had researched a lot because there were almost 500 plus resources like in which were there on the Hyperledger sites but there was no filter in there that which are relevant stuff which are non-relevant stuff and we I basically had to sort out all the relevant stuff for three particular personas which were Hyperledger for the business users who would be coming at Hyperledger for the enterprise users and lastly for the contributor and maintainer users so these were the three personas in which we divided the people upon that if someone from all these three personas comes in Hyperledger then what are the significant resources that is available for them so after researching a lot and lot I narrowed down my like resources link to these if you can see on screen so in this we had a lot of links in there so my mentors John and Niko helped me out there so they had helped me out to sort out all the irrelevant resources like which are not relevant for this particular persona we removed them from there and then we created top top 10 link resource links for the people for the people who are coming first at the Hyperledger site from these three personas because if someone is new he or she does not know exactly where to go in there so to ease the access and to make comfortable the onboarding process of new users this was also the work that I did so these were the two aspects that I majorly worked upon and like in this things I did not only learn about you know about GitHub about technical stuff or the research work but other than that also like John introduced me to Google analytics so I read about it I was so excited after knowing that you know we have these stuff in there and it is so useful for the different is big organizations how useful Google analytics is so because of this mentorship I did not only learn what exactly is there in the project but other than that also I got a lot of technical experiences now moving forward so I hope you understood what exactly my journey was like to in all these three months now I'll just show you some of the things that I like this is the basic thing this is a basic layout of my six month journey so first I was assigned my mentor and I networked with them I made a very good bond with my mentors then I did a six month internship then we had regular weekly calls with him he was always there in the call and if by chance if he missed the call then my mentors usually rescheduled especially John had been a big support in there now talking about the networking and global community I had met a lot of new people I had met a lot of new people in there while new people in the sense like the other elixir mentees from other projects I met them and I was also responsible for hosting one of the major hyper ledger sessions which was hyper ledger mentor mentee bonding session in which all the mentees of 2023 cohort and the hyper ledger were invited and we were in there and I organize the sessions with games and sharing experiences and all these interactive stuff was there and Min was the person who proposed this to me and John and my other mentors they were there and we were very excited to do that so under the guidance of Nico John and Peter I organized the session in which we had games in which we had one to one interactions with each other and we got to know about the different projects that every mentee is working upon there were not many mentors in there but yeah Bobby was there in the session she also joined so all we had interaction with mentors as well so I was also responsible for for organizing this now moving forward to some more stuff so basically other than this also there were a lot of things that I worked upon and if I if I start taking the count it will it will not stop because the learnings that I got they were very like I cannot explain that what exactly were the things that I learned through because it includes like boosting up my confidence and it includes the different learning stuff that I did and teamwork and there are a lot of aspects other than technical or non-technical which I learned throughout my journey so now showing you some of the glimpses of my work so these are some of my PRs that were merged by Aaron because I was responsible for making them I also I have also shared all these resources links it will be shared by David to all of you after the sessions also so I also was responsible for making a start here guide redesign even though it is not implemented yet because the new but it it's it will soon be implemented because I am still contributing to Hyperlegion so I was also responsible for making this design if you can see there so the start here guide page that you just saw earlier so this is the new redesign of that so this includes the research work that I did so in the start here guide this we will have one section for spare for the different personas in which if the person clicks on there and he is from any one persona like he's from a business personas like if you assume then then he can click upon the things then he can just click upon one resource and he will be guided throughout the sourcing so this redesign part also also I worked upon so this was also one of the things that was very useful for me throughout my journey now other than that also I I was very lucky that I also had an in-person experience of Hyperlegion so I'll just show you so if you can see the photo below so I am from India so there was this offline session which was organized by the Hyperlegion India chapter so I was very fortunate here to work with Vikram who is the chair co-chair of Hyperlegion India chapter and we had a very big event Hyperlegion innovate in there in this session and it was a whole day session and it was very grand and we had we had the we also had a just one second yeah so if you can see him here I'll just enlarge the image once so if you can see the person in here so he is basically Hyperlegion Foundations Vice President for Asia Asia Pacific Julian Gordon so I was very fortunate enough to meet him in person and talk to him and understand the Hyperlegion environment from his perspective because he has been the one of the deeds of Hyperlegion community so I got to know and learn a lot from him as well and usually in open source we do not get a possibility to see other people but in this opportunity I was very lucky to meet him so this was one of the one this was also one of the things that I learned throughout my journey and yeah so if I talk about the things that I learned throughout so if I put them in a simple words so the main things that I gained from the Hyperlegion journey was the technical part the languages that the technical stuff the GitHub stuff that was very useful for me because in future I will do more GitHub contribution because of that then I also apart from the technical skills growth my excitement to learn more about technologies grew so that was also one part that I learned throughout and talking about the different career as aspects in future and if you ask me about the different things I would like to do with Hyperlegion future would be like I would try to extend my project and I work upon this project more and more I do not want to stop my contributions in there because Hyperlegion is a beautiful community and I want to be part of it and other than that also if I conclude my Hyperlegion journey I would just say that you know Hyperlegion has been an immersive journey and this project Hyperlegion onboarding mentor mentality program has been a very immersive journey filled with accomplishments lessons and exciting opportunities so the impact on the larger Hyperlegion community is tangible with improved user experience and enhanced collaboration as well and I really look forward to more experiences and the relationships that I formed like with my mentors with other mentees and the which they were definitely one of the beautiful things that I got from Hyperlegion and and the technical skills honed is there already so undoubtedly this did not shape not only shape my personal growth but also contributed to the continuous evolution of the Hyperlegion ecosystem and this journey continuous like it is fueled with passion for innovation and I really want that I keep my commitment to be part of this community throughout and I lead more to the community building part and yeah that's that's all from me like like this is the most brief way that I can summarize my learnings into and if you can see on the screen so now can we have the like John can we have the like question and answer session now yeah absolutely and that's a wonderful presentation very nice presentation materials that I think really showed all of the things that you worked on in the mentorship program and really you know you can see it's a rich experience that anyone who becomes a mentee for Hyperlegion really gets a broad exposure to a lot of different aspects whether that's in coding whether that's in working with the community whether that's in developing things that are used in the real world all those things Ankesha did a great job on and you can really see the fruits of her effort here so one of the things I think is always good and and Ankesha did a great presentation that she talked about earlier in her review here was you know bringing the mentees together and talking about you know what the mentee and mentorship program is all about and I think that you know anyone who's joined the colleague here and I saw in the chat that there are people that are interested in joining the next Hyperlegion mentorship program and so maybe let's just open it up to the group here and ask specific questions for Ankesha about her mentorship program here and you know gain insights as to what made the mentorship successful for you how they can get involved in the community even before the new mentorship starts and then how they can then apply to be a mentee once the mentorship opens up for the 2024 applications so let's go ahead and open up the floor and if somebody either wants to raise their hand or come off mute and ask the question that'd be great and if you're wanting to post it in the chat then I can also engage with Ankesha here and ask her the question okay so Dave's asking the question about when is the application going to open and so Dave I'm going to expect that's going to be in a few months here generally we have where the mentorship program is in the latter half of the year and it runs for several months so I don't know David if you can know exactly when the next 2024 mentorship program will start and if so maybe you can just let the group know here otherwise I don't have the sorry John sorry John I mean to interrupt you I don't know the exact program dates for 2024 but here I'll drop the program dates for 2023 they're going to be very similar so if you look here on the wiki the hyperledger wiki at the 2023 program dates you can see that generally speaking in February that people who want to be mentors can apply for becoming mentors and then putting proposals together for what they want what projects they want and then there's a process where those are selected by the hyperledger's technical oversight committee and then mentees can apply to those projects you know soon after so in 2023 the mentor process opened in February so if you want to be a mentor that's coming up soon and then the applying the mentees applying to that happened in mid-march or excuse me April April so just those are going to be roughly the dates this year perfect yeah thanks David that's super helpful and I think that answers the question another question looks like that came in from Dave and Anka Shah I'll let you kind of respond to this one is how do you prepare prior to the program to be a successful mentee so maybe talk about your experience and what you would recommend for other people interested in coming in mentee yeah sure so I think so who has this question just I'll just take one Dave okay Dave yeah so yeah okay Dave so before hyperledger on voting project started like the project I worked upon we had prior calls like almost for one month or 15 it was around 20 to 25 days before the main program started we already had these calls ongoing in there so while researching upon hyperledger and LFX I got to know there is a calendar hyperledger calendar in there which is open for all anyone can join the calls so that's the place where I actually reached out to one of the mentors who is Niko he was also one of my mentor along with John so he had posted something like you know LFX applications are open so I just reached out to him that I am really interested toward hyperledger on voting project and I even reached out to John that I am very interested towards it so how can he come to continue in there beforehand before the final application starts off so as already John had shared the link to the hyperledger calendar if you go in there so for this it also they will have these call scheduled already for each project so the project that interests you you can join and calls in there before applying to hyperledger because if you have prior contribution that definitely helps you to get in a project because you already know about that what exactly are the things that you need to work upon after you get selected so it is very easier for even the application reviewer to see that yeah you already have some experience in this project and it will be very easier for them to choose you and it will be like it's the best way you can prepare out that if you choose a tech stack that you're comfortable with go to the projects which are based in that tech stack and then after that you can join the calls and then you can like make a bond with the mentors and make them feel that why exactly you deserve to be a candidate and that you can even reflect in the proposal the proposal that I submitted had all these things that I had the potential of doing and that exactly impacts your application if you have prior contribution in there yeah so I just hope that asked Dave's question yeah there is one more question out there I guess what's the job opportunity in the US after completing this program so John would you like to take that question? Sure so Dave my question to you is are you located in the United States or are you located in India or what country are you in? Let's see here Dave's in the US okay yeah so Dave there is a wonderful set of opportunity for anyone who's engaged in the hyperledger community and there are a vast number of companies who have implemented hyperledger solutions it's the primary blockchain in use by large enterprises and so once you have gained the skill sets associated with you know being a contributor in the hyperledger community you can work for a variety of companies these are all big companies that you've heard of IBM Oracle are members of the hyperledger community and definitely deploy that another big consulting firm is Accenture and Accenture does a lot of work with the hyperledger projects with their customer base as well so really I think there's a wealth of opportunity one thing I would recommend to you is just decide on what type of engagement that you would like to have as far as a job going forward there's a lot of things around identity management that might be of interest to you supply chain and really it's a function of looking at you know what type of industry do you want to be involved in and what type of tech stack are you interested in being involved with so plenty of opportunity and it's just something that you you know should have a passion about and maybe Dave I can ask you a question of you know what's your passion what background do you have and what type of opportunities are you looking for going forward and he may you know be off mute and and if you need to come off mute and talk Dave that's fine as well but he may not be able to do that this time okay let's uh see if we have any other questions from anyone and if you want just come off mute or raise your hand and ask him of on kasha or myself about the mentorship program let's take a look here and Dave saying he doesn't have a mic no no problem Dave I'm just trying to make sure that we address everyone's question thoroughly and that we answer what you need and blockchain technologies yeah just like I explained there's a lot of different roles and responsibilities in the blockchain industry and really what you'll find is the hyper ledger community is very open and welcoming and then once you're engaged with the community there's really a lot of fellowship that allows people to you know connect and share leads and you know when a company is looking for new developers they're going to tap into the community because they know that those community members are familiar with the platform and maybe have developed as part of a maintainer uh philosophy part of the hyper ledger infrastructure and one of the things I would suggest also is there's a discord channel for hyper ledger which is a great way to really you know see all the different projects that hyper ledger has to offer and engage with the members of the community directly via discord chat so I don't know Dave can you put the discord channel into uh David Boswell into the chat for everyone to take a look at oh sure okay other questions that we have from the community about the mentorship one thing I will say it's uh a very long and detailed commitment and on kasha really did a great job of always being there for the meetings when we had them on a weekly basis and running through and doing a lot of great work in the interim between meetings so really I think you know anyone who's interested in becoming a mentee really has to give a level commitment and I think you know on kasha shared all about that uh on her presentation but uh you know that's core and what we expect from the community and on kasha maybe you can talk a little bit about go forward what your plans are in the community so that people can see that it's a way for them to not only just initially engage with the community but become a long-term participant in the community and you're on mute currently on kasha oh i'm so sorry so uh yeah talking about myself that you know uh since I already had such a beautiful experience in hyper ledger and uh like uh I'll also give my gratitude to people that have helped me including you but uh the insights and the lessons which helped my not not only the technical growth but also the personality traits that I've got because of working with an international organization because in India uh you know it is like not every person is has the chance to work upon people internationally so I got this opportunity with hyper ledger to work upon people in different time zones like so the things that I learned through definitely it uh triggers the uh commitment in me more that I should be part of the hyper ledger community and talking about the next step for the project so uh I I really look forward to uh continuous enhancement of you know and integrating more technologies emerging technologies to the project so uh uh I don't like which is one of the TOC members he asked me for a redesign of the start here guide so I am also working upon that and I plan to help him out uh enhance the basic user experience of the start here guide even though that was not exactly the part of my project but I really love to contribute in there so I would work I would like to work upon them that and I'm also working upon that more and other than that also uh I might try to you know apply as a mentor in there for the next cohort like Niku had did because one of my mentors had recommended me that since you're working on the project so I I'll try that I apply to a mentor so these are the future as uh future uh things that I really look forward to and yeah definitely uh the last thing would be community engagement so I would uh definitely keep my uh contact with such great people like John, Niku, Peter, Min and uh David, Emily, Bobby and I've got a lot of uh people who are so experienced in technologies I've got connections with them so uh I'll definitely uh keep my community growing in hyper ledger along with them and I really look forward to encourage people more like all of you have joined in the call today because you're interested towards hyper ledger right so I am planning to uh work upon a chapter in my university itself because many students had asked me like how did you get this internship like mentorship and all so I'm planning to extend the hyper ledger chapter in my university that is also a thing that I plan to do in future right yeah right yeah that's wonderful uncle I'm glad to hear that and it's kind of one of those things where there's organic growth of the community and I think you know really having a university chapter that you're setting up helps that organic growth for sure uh looks like Dave had another question for us here about uh selected for the program that they need to have project proposals and so Dave I can talk a little bit about that process so basically what we have to do is we as mentors have to submit a mentorship proposal to hyper ledger and the hyper ledger foundation for approval and that'll detail exactly what will be covered in the mentorship and what will be the goals and outcomes from the mentor or ship and what we're looking to do and then once that's approved by a hyper ledger foundation then we'll open it up to the community and the public at large to apply for the mentorship which is what uncle shot did and uh what was great about uncle shall was she was also active in getting engaged in the community prior to becoming a mentee and we had a number of calls around the onboarding task force and uncle shot joined those calls and really was an active participant and really showed her level of commitment to the community in advance so I think that that really was what you know helped her to become a successful applicant and really made for a good project outcome any other further questions on that Dave feel free to post them in the chat and then we'll have the mic working right now and then Byron says he is interested in doing a project in Atlanta so Byron that sounds great and I don't know Dave do we have an active meetup group in Atlanta and if you're not involved in that Byron I would suggest joining the Atlanta meetup group and getting connected with you know people in your local community I did just drop a link to the Atlanta group there is one that's not currently active but if that if there's interest in restarting it here you can reach out to us and meet up at Hyperlegidorg and I'm happy to support you with restarting that I'll be the one to start it let's go great oh yeah reach out happy to help I mean it's there and existing a lot of groups went inactive during the pandemic obviously we weren't meeting in person that kind of shut some groups down but I think now's a good time to look at restarting things so some fresh blood that's okay we'll get it going yeah reach out if you are happy to help is it email me oh you put it there okay yeah meetup at hyperlegidorg all right thank you yeah I know that that's great Byron and I'm really glad that you joined this session and I'm really excited to hear that you're interested in you know getting the Atlanta group restarted for meetups and if there's anything that I can do to you know collaborate with you or help you out there I'm over in Denver right in the Denver meetup group just reach out to me and I'm glad to help you out as well put my email in this as well if you want to reach out to me thank you it was a top three city Atlanta is a wonderful city too so just let's definitely connect and collaborate for sure okay let's look at what else we have here so the next thing is looks like Vic has question is it possible to make project on encryption cryptography with hyperlegic fabric I guess Ben like sorry John would give a better answer to that like I don't have idea about fabric much yeah that's you know part and parcel of hyperlegic fabric is based on encryption and cryptography so absolutely and it depends on what type of project you're looking to make uh Kieran and I'm just going based on what I see is the first is the initials so maybe if you want to come off the mic and talk about it I'm glad to give you a better description than just you know saying that's hi to all actually sorry to its office is noisy but what I would like to say uh the key store public key management the private key management the key storage the key management can restore on the ledger since it is a permission uh blockchain technology so that's what my idea uh if anyone is already touching the security and hyperlegic fabric implementing some security solutions um yeah I'm really interested to know yeah and I would suggest if you really want to get into the finer details about what you're talking about for hyperlegic fabric I would suggest engaging with the hyperlegic fabric discord channel and asking a specific question there and you'll get a quick and timely response and I'll be right on uh with what question you want to find out there so that would be my suggestion to you I think shadow channel in there yeah sure I can I could see the link here yes thank you okay perfect okay then uh vix saying it sounds abstract I'm not getting all the project is about website is that you have papers or a complete example we're going to follow up with some materials after uh the presentation wraps up here so uh on kasha has a number of links that we can share with you as well as the presentation and Dave will be I'll just share the yeah please continue join I'll speak up after that yeah and Dave uh David Boswell will share the information with everyone after the meetup wraps up here okay so uh for that question uh I understand that you know it might sound abstract to you because you do not have any idea about the project it happens like if we know uh if we listen about some project first so that's why I had written up a blog so uh I have written two different blogs basically so that people can even engage with LFX uh so all these resources would be shared with the people in there after the meeting also but since you had asked so I'm also sharing the blog links that I have written I am I hope that really help you out uh to understand my project and I'll share some of the links right now itself in the group please visit all these links so that you get idea about what exactly my project was because uh sometimes it happens that we do not understand things verbally but if we read about them some it depends on the person so no issues in that I'll try my best that uh I'm able to express my work uh through either we like the session or either my blog or any stuff okay anyone else have any questions about either the mentor man she ship program or for Ankesha about her mentee ship okay I'm not seeing anything additional in there Ankesha I really want to thank you for doing such a great job during 2023 on your mentee ship and really enjoyed working with you and I look forward to having you be a great contributor going forward in the hyperledger community do you have any final comments you want to offer to the group and then I think we can go ahead and bring the session to a close okay yeah I really want to thank a lot of people in there of course including you but yeah there are a lot of people I have also recently posted on LinkedIn about this because I was I am I don't think that any journey can be done without the guidance of people in there so I'll just take some names of the people and would offer some gratitude for all of them including you of course so first of all thank you so much John for being the constant support throughout I already said in start but I would like to say that again for being one of the best mentors that I have ever come through and your guidance means a lot to me because it did not help me throughout the internship but after that also like in my real life when I got selected in Microsoft which was a very big achievement for me so I implemented these skills in there I implemented the confidence I gained from LFX from hyperledger in there and that guidance from you and it has had helped me in getting the internship in there other than that I would like to thank Peter and Niku for also guiding me throughout my journey for whatever time it was so because we I know that as mentors you guys are also very busy in there and you have a whole different level of work in there but still you took out time and gave me guidance thank you so much other than that I would like to thank Bobby who was the mentor who was my mentor for documentation project in which I contributed as well along with hyperledger onboarding so she was also a very great mentor and helped me to understand the hyperledger environment now other than that I would like to thank some more people including Arun who has also helped me throughout like if I had any doubt or anything regarding technical stuff or non-technical stuff he also he always replied to me then the India chapter
