Fernando Pérez will be our keynote speaker at DataFest 2020 next Wednesday and I'm looking forward to introducing him to various groups that are eager to meet with him.

I've been looking through his recent tweets and I like what I see:

• Guix-Jupyter: Towards self-contained, reproducible notebooks
• How GESIS joined the Binder federation
• The lifecycle of open source scientific software

I love that he retweeted Péter Király and Carol Willing, whom I consider friends, as well as Dario Taraborelli, whom I met at an open science event a while back.

Of course I'll try to put on his radar recent integrations of Dataverse with Jupyter including Binder and Whole Tale.
