Hacktoberfest 2020: Registration Now Open πŸŽƒ

Today’s the day! Commit to open source (pun intended) by signing up for Hacktoberfest!

Hacktoberfest is a month-long celebration of OSS that highlights the truly collaborative nature of building software. Developers from all across the world challenge themselves to contribute four or more PRs to open source projects within the month of October. It’s an opportunity to develop new relationships, contribute your first or hundredth contribution, and earn some sweet physical or digital swag.

We’re exactly one week from the start of Hacktoberfest, so get ready by registering today. You can use this last week to start thinking about which projects you want to contribute to! Here are a few projects that are looking for collaborators:

And regardless of whether or not you know your project(s) yet, let us know if you plan on participating:

Happy Coding!

I'm probably too late to join but I just merged a pull request into youtube-dl adding an age-protection test with a Creative Commons video, Big Buck Bunny. github.com/l1ving/youtube-dl/pull/14

And we even made a new release recently!

Is there something special to do to add our open source projects to a list of repos looking for help? I'm maintaining a couple of open source apps that could definitely benefit from some community help! One is a historical data rescue tool and the other is an open source community engine for both rails and Django.
