The v13 release is not just a release either, it is also our official announcement of participation in the annual #hacktoberfest. 💻🥨
We know that we're a few days late to the party, but v13 had to get ready before. 😉
This year, the fest is opt-in for projects and we definitely want to opt into taking part in this great event! If you ever thought about starting coding or giving back to your favourite open source repositories, now is the time! Head over to the hacktoberfest website to learn more about it.
We already prepared some issues on our repositories and aim towards opening more issues for starters, but feel free to begin a hunt for improvements and fixes by yourself!
Today we present you: The takahē (Porphyrio hochstetteri)
— a flightless, endemic New Zealand bird, that was once thought extinct and famously rediscovered in 1948 — has been saved from the brink of extinction by intensive conservation: captive breeding, predator control, and protected reserves. Populations have increased but the species remains threatened and needs continued protection. Around 500 birds are now known to survive.
