Happy Friday!

Going forward I'll try to post a project update to the mailing list every two weeks before our fortnightly meeting on Mondays. This may help us in the future with quarterly reports to the Linux Foundation. Please reply with anything I'm missing!

- We created a new Google calendar that you can find on linuxboot.org, which includes the fortnightly Monday meetings. **Please add it to your calendar!** Invites will not be sent directly nor to the mailing list. This is also the last e-mail I'll CC everyone explicitly so please make sure you've joined the mailing list[3]
- Ron was added back to the TSC list on linuxboot.org. He is one of the most experienced members of the community and helped to organize the project for years. He has also been acting as the representative to the Linux Foundation
- We will meet with the Linux Foundation next Tuesday on the state of the project

## Book

+360/-218 lines in 40 files were modified, including:

- Description of use cases for LinuxBoot[1]
- Partial integration of Vale and markdownlint in Github CI

## Upcoming events

- Fortnightly meeting on Monday, April 28
- Discussion with Warner about booting FreeBSD on Wednesday, April 30

## How to contribute

- Lint more files in the book with Vale
- Help document one of the many LinuxBoot implementations[2]
- Look through https://github.com/linuxboot/book/issues for inspiration
- Let more people know about the #linuxboot Slack channel, mailing list or meetings. Once the book is in a better state we'll make a bigger push, but until then please feel free to spread the word

Best,
Philip
