# Week ending 2026-05-17 (Week 20)

I had a rejuvenating week at PyCon US meeting lots of folks in the community and talking shop with other maintainers on supply chain security, contribution workflows, and more. The sprint ends tomorrow, but we’re already at 12 high-quality pull requests and one new contributor offering, “I definitely feel like I can do this now.” (Thank you @RachellCalhoun for signing the project up!)
