:tada: Announcing ROSCon 2023, New Orleans, Louisiana :tada:

I am happy to announce that we just launched the ROSCon 2023 website! This year’s ROSCon will take place in New Orleans, Louisiana on 2023-10-18T05:00:00Z2023-10-20T05:00:00Z.

This is the first ROSCon in North America in five years and we’re really looking forward to seeing everyone in-person again. In the next few weeks we’ll put out the call for talks and workshops along with prospectus for sponsors (you may want to give your HR & marketing departments a heads up). We’re also working on a few surprises for this year’s event. :wink:
