THINGS I'VE LEARNED SERVING ON THE BOARD OF THE PYTHON SOFTWARE FOUNDATION

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

The Python Software Foundation (PSF) is a non-profit organization with a mission to promote, protect, and advance the Python programming language and to support and facilitate the growth of a diverse and international community of Python programmers. It is responsible for protecting and supporting the Python language and community, but not the development of CPython itself, which is handled by the Python core team, who are governed by the Python Steering Council. This article looks at how the PSF functions, what life is like as a board member, the kinds of things the board talks about, and more.
