FOSAI Weekly News Roundup (August 2023)
Hello everyone! I am back with another news roundup, something I will try to be more consistent on doing every week or so. It has been hard with a recent change in work schedule. That being said, it’s likely news will be delivered in this format for the time being. At least until I can free up more of my time.
Until then, I hope this news sates some of your curiosity. By all means please post away if there’s something important I miss on the day-to-day basis. As we grow, I will have less time to make frequent posts, I need all the help I can get keeping us informed!
Besides that, I have other projects in the pipeline for this community I am excited to share later this year. The first one is live, and still a WIP - but here for you nonetheless.

Hi everyone - I’ll admit, I wasn’t as on top of news this August as I was planning to be. I am going to unpin this and try to figure out a more efficient workflow for September and the coming Fall.
