Program manager Miriam Bastian affirms that | Oct 12 04:38 |
| schestowitz | Wilson is a professional community builder and therefore an excellent choice to keynote the conference, which is themed in 2024 as "Cultivating Community." According to executive director Zoë Kooyman the theme in turn is a "fitting follow-up to the celebration of the fortieth anniversary of the GNU Project this year."</p> | Oct 12 04:38 |

| schestowitz | <p>One of the most insidious aspects of the “conspiracy theory” fabrication is that the falsehoods associated with the term have been successfully seeded into the public’s consciousness.
