The long road to 1.0 - Hannah Wolfe
When we started gathering ideas for speakers for Script'17, Hannah was one of the very first people that came into our mind. And with Sebastian and Hannah working together on Ghost, we had our first speaker ready!
Knowing the topics Hannah was talking about in the past, we knew that we are in for an exciting story about the inner workings of an open source project; and how they manage to be self-sustainable and non-profit.
Also, Hannah's talk produced one of the most retweeted quotes from Script'17. And it's one quote that sums up everything nicely:
"Sometimes, contributing to Open Source is the simple act of telling someone who built something you use: Thank you." @ErisDS #scriptconf

So lay back and enjoy "a story of life, love and the pursuit of 100% test coverage".
