   I've got a two-parter blog post about community coming up.

   With FOSDEM and some difficultes that some folks I know have in tech with understanding why fostering community means inclusion, I've been heartened by @anna and @glyph posts on the recent controversy.

     @garrett points about the ways FOSDEM is surprisingly inaccessible to possibly 30 percent of the population is interesting too.

     As are the points about how FOSDEM has been disappointing on a number of fronts for years.

     Here is @anna Anna's thread about #FOSDEM and their experience of navigating it. There is a bigger question we all need to ask ourselves about inclusion and why so many in the tech community don't like it when the mirror of their poor record on inclusion is held up to techbros faces.
