This is beautifully written; thanks @vcarl! |

My understanding of the blog post idea (from @benjamingr if I recall correctly) was quite different. The idea of the blog post series to highlight the technical contributions done by LGBTQ+ people, showing how much they made a difference to the project.
While I like this specific blog post, I don’t think it fits our blog.
"Publish a series of blog posts outlining contributions from voluntary LGBT+ contributors." One could argue that contributing a blog post itself is a voluntary contribution. Additionally, this blog post features a quote from npm's co-founder, whose contributions to the ecosystem have been immense. One could also point out that a blog post like this will inspire more LGBTQ contributors to contribute to the project, perhaps we can mention in the blog post that we are looking for LGBTQ contributors to write posts, and this will act as an introduction to the series? |

Can we mention that we are looking for LGBTQ contributors to publish blog posts outlining their contributions. We can use this post as an introduction to the initiative.
On that note, if we change this blog post to include the additional information, it's canonically different than the one linked, so that can be removed

Yeah, happy to add something but not sure precisely what the plan for a subsequent series is so I'm not sure what copy would be best to add. Won't fight too hard on canonical rel, but it would be neato to get a backlink of some variety for whatever SEO juice that contains 😇 but that's not the point of this, not highly important to me

+1 to what Aviv said. With the new addition, if this blog helps in encouraging LGBTQ contributors to participate in sharing about their Node.js contributions that they'd like to see outlined, that's good.

@vcarl Perhaps something like
"As part of Pride Month, we’re launching a series of blog posts highlighting the voices and work of LGBTQ technologists. If you identify as part of the community and want to share your journey, your projects, or how your identity has shaped your perspective and contributions, we’d love to hear from you. Reach out and help us celebrate the diversity, creativity, and brilliance that make our field stronger."
(Obviously, you can workshop it however you'd like)
About the canonical link — I strongly recommend we remove it. This article includes additional content, making it meaningfully different from the original. If we set the canonical to your site, search engines may not index our version, which would reduce its visibility.
While Carl may not be a core contributor to the code powering Node.js, they absolutely have contributed to Node.js as a whole, most recently with the launch of our official Discord server, which is definitely making a difference to the project by giving the community a new space to engage. |
FWIW, this style of post was exactly the kind of post I was envisioning |
|
Adding to the agenda for @nodejs/tsc visibility, feel free to remove after the meeting today. |

Missed the cutoff, sorry. |

@nodejs/TSC I would love if this was merged before July, as to make it merged during Pride Month, so please review when you get a chance. @mcollina Given the additional comments, would you mind taking a second look 🙏? Thank you all! |
