We intentionally support regional Linux events like this, because local engagement is a big key to our success as an open-source community. ## Social Thursday we hosted a Birds of a Feather game night called “[Speed Migration with Rocky Linux](https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/21x/presentations/rocky-linux-speed-migration-event)” in which players “migrated” games at random intervals, often in the middle of a hand. This worked decently well for Jenga and Uno, but proved more challenging with Yahtzee and Battleship. Either way, Rocky Linux is an excellent option when considering migrating to a new OS that is stable. - ## Sessions Friday was a great day for sessions. At the end of the day Krista Burdine, one of our community leaders, spoke as part of the UpScale social hour, about [growing open source community](https://www.youtube.com/live/JJk_-pkrQBQ?feature=shared&t=2426) by making your project accessible to newcomers. If you missed it, make sure you tune into the first 30 minutes of the linked video for a clever and Linux-y musical performance by Forrest Brazeal, entitled, “Songs to Enjoy while your servers deploy.” You won’t regret it. - ## Working the Booth -Saturday we had the distinct pleasure of meeting a class of middle school students from Los Nietos STEAM Academy, who had just finished a Rocky Linux mini install day as part of their class on cybersecurity.
