by Helena Ott

Hi there ALASCA community and happy friday! We're absolutely thrilled to finally share our*ALASCA OpenSnac — the podcast by and for the open-source cloud community* — with all of you. Over the past few months, we've been working behind the scenes together with UhuruTec to turn this idea into reality. The podcast is meant to be a space for our*community to exchange knowledge and connect,* and we aim to create a *space for open, honest, and unscripted conversations *on topics like *OpenStack, Kubernetes, and everything else that keeps our open-source cloud infrastructure industry busy day in and day out. * True to the open-source spirit, we've decided to build the podcast *without relying on any proprietary software* — we're using Castopod <https://cp.uhurutec.com/@alasca_opensnac>for hosting and open-source alternatives for directories for listing such as fyyd.de <https://fyyd.de/podcast/alasca-opensnac/0> and podastindex.org <https://podcastindex.org/podcast/7812081>. You can find all the information about our podcast on our Website <https://alasca.cloud/alasca-opensnac-der-podcast/>. We hope you enjoy tuning in, and we're always happy to receive suggestions for topics and guests! We're genuinely delighted that we were able to bring this project to life together with our member UhuruTec, and we're deeply grateful to our community for your continued commitment. If you have further ideas for how we can keep driving ALASCA forward, please don't hesitate to reach out! In addition to that, we have also *pulished our Community Digest for Q1*. As always, this edition of the Community Digest <https://alasca.cloud/alasca-community-digest-no-8/> is packed with news about new members and projects, updates on our association activities, and a status quo on our ongoing projects. Have a great friday and a nice weekend!
