 Hi everyone. Thanks for coming to our KubeCon virtual talk. This is the real Kubernetes artifacts. We have a special twist on a Kubernetes project lightning talk. My name is Paris. Nikita, and we're from the Kubernetes during committee. So you probably recognize this. This is one of the most famous artifacts in the world. This is the Rosetta Stone. What did this teach us? Well, this definitely taught scholars how to crack Egyptian hieroglyphics, but it also taught us about their community and taught us so many other things about history and when you can't be there yourself. That's exactly what you rely on artifacts. So what what the people of the future, say 50 to 100 years, what do they think about us as a Kubernetes community if they were to look through some of our artifacts? Definitely going to think about YAML for sure. We have so many thousand YAML files through and across 300 GitHub peoples. We also have Docker files, quad manifest, deployment manifest, con job manifest, storage, select volumes. All right. All right. All right. All right. That's enough for the technical artifacts. I'm talking a little bit more about our cultural artifacts. Like what makes us us? Everyone knows by now the Kubernetes logo story, the Kubernetes name story, the origination story, Borg at Google and Star Trek references for project code names and the whole nine yards. That's a real cultural artifact that has history and roots in something. And the photo that you're seeing on the screen right now is actually a picture of the contributor summit patch. This actually used to be on the CNCF swag store website a long time ago for $1,000. Some of you may remember that it's no longer on the store because we give these out at special contributor events now. So we have thousands of contributors all over the world that wear this patch as really a representation of them as Kubernetes contributors. That's great. So anytime you see this patch and you were in the world, you know that you can give your local contributor a high five. Another thing I totally love about contributor summits are the t-shirts. So each contributor summit has its own contributor summit t-shirt. And they look really amazing. So Tim Hawkin loves designing logos and designs for these. Josh Berkis has also contributed to the designs for Barcelona and the China events. And I really regret not joining the project earlier because I must have all these shirts. I love them so, so much. Same, same. Another thing I love about this community is also that it has a personality and we're not always about code and work all the time in meetings. So we have so many hobbies. And all of these hobbies also lead into the stuff that we do in our community and that we do at KubeCon. So we hang out together at KubeCon. We go on bike rides. We put on parties. We do a lot of amazing, interesting games and lots of other things. Shout out to SIG bikes, SIG Beards, SIG Honk. We could go on and on and on. Yeah, another thing we love doing at KubeCon is the Chopwood Carry Water Award. So there are so many members in the Kubernetes community who do tankless work day in and day out. Sometimes they're not even paid by their employers to do it. They're working on that on their own time. So they put in efforts day in and day out. So we like to reward these members using a Chopwood Carry Water Award on the big keynote stage. Another way we also recognize efforts is through the release swag. So each release team consists of almost like 50 or more volunteers right now. And each release lead likes they design their own custom swag. And I personally love Aaron's Captainities shirt a lot. I know it's one of like the many favorites that Kubernetes community has. Iconic. And it is iconic. It was not on that release team when I wish I was just so that I could have thought of that T-shirt. That's what I, the same thing you think about Contributor Summit shirts. I think about release shirts. So that's why I'm always trying to join the release team at this point. And we're doing that in 2020. So we're not missing a beat here. And keeping in tradition with how 2020 is going. We have an animal crossing theme with positive logo for Kubernetes with like huge Kubernetes animal crossing figures. We're going to have swag coming in real soon for that too. Wow. So there is a lot of custom stuff here. Clearly we've got custom release gear. We have got custom reward and recognition items. And there's even more. Our community really gathers together around creativity and how we can deliver the Kubernetes name and message on different items. So in the past you may have seen the Kubernetes logo on baby onesies. And we give those out to new parents. We even sell those on the on the CNCF store at this point. We also have a massive Staker collection just like so many other open source projects do. I mean we even have donut artifacts at this point. And donut artifacts though. I don't know if they actually can they are technically artifacts at that point because they're in my tummy now. So don't know like you know if they're that real at this point. But we get really creative with food too. So that's just not a long lasting artifact. So long lasting emojis. I don't know about you all but emojis are really one of my favorite things about the Kubernetes project. I've even given a talk on it in the past. Emojis are just really a part of our life at this point. And Slack is such a huge huge communication tool for us. And it's really one of the arteries of the project both for users as well as contributors. We have hundreds and hundreds. Some of our folks even try to come up with some of the best emojis and the most custom emojis. And that's really wonderful. And this is one of them. This is one of our favorites. Nehita and I picked this one out collectively. And this is one of our favorite emoji artifacts. And wouldn't it be funny if people from the future were like so wait. Did they have logos as eyes back then? In their eyes? In their in their heart eyes? Pleasure dad jokes Paris. I don't know you know. But these emojis also come with shout outs. We have a shout outs channel. And this is also really where a lot of people can find out about us as a community. Because one of the things we'd like to do as Nehita mentioned before with Chalkwood and Kerry Water is we really like to give people recognition. So what's more powerful than recognition powered with emojis. I don't know about you but that really is awesome. And that's my kind of thing. But Slack isn't necessarily publicly searchable. And yes we know that. So what we've decided to do is make our shout outs publicly accessible. Why and how? We have a new Twitter account. This Twitter account this year is going to give us a voice for just our contributors so that we can really hit some messages home with this large population of people that we have amongst a growing gigantic user community. This will really allow us to funnel those messages and also really bubble up some of our shout outs and the people that we really care about and want to just tell the world how awesome they are and what a great thing that they just did. So like Paris mentioned our community is huge and this year we've crossed a very important milestone. We have 50,000 contributors to the Kubernetes project now. Now these 50,000 contributors now have an identity. We have a special website just for Kubernetes contributors and how they can get started. And you can find all the future artifacts, our past artifacts, our pictures, our resources, our blog posts, our events, all at kids.dev. So we've heard a lot about in-person artifacts and physical and tangible artifacts but one of Nikita and I's most favorite not tangible artifacts and really a cultural artifact is our value statements. These documents live in GitHub. They come in the flavor, they also come in the flavor of governance documents. All of these things are future artifacts. Other projects fork these and riff off them and communities of the future will learn from us through these documents. And in the values document in particular the one that we really wanted to hit home is inclusive is better than exclusive. No matter what day it is, no matter what time it is, no matter what year it is, inclusive is always going to be better than exclusive. And actually let's end on, yeah, hold up, we actually have some real, let's not end it right there. We have some really quick real project updates. So we've had two interesting elections in the past few months. So we had a steering committee election and we also had the code of conduct committee election. So I just want to introduce the new steering committee members, Bob, Kilian, Jordan Liggett, and Tabarnum Srinivas. And thank you so, so much for Aaron and Laki for all your hard work and all the efforts that you've put into making this project better. Thanks y'all. We also have new code of conduct committee members joining us. So say hello to Celeste, Karen and Tim and thank them whenever you see them for all of the hard work they're putting in behind the scenes. And Caroline, Trace and Jennifer, thank you so, so much for all the efforts you've put in to do all of the past years and shaping the code of conduct committee into what it is today. Thank you. Call us. Say hi to Celeste. Yeah, and say hi to Celeste of the steering committee channel in Slack and be friendly and find us. Thank you.
