Hi Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! In the US, Monday was a public holiday so today, Tuesday, feels a bit like Monday and i was happily going through the Monday motions and then I got a reminder that I had to write this week's installment! Ooops! Thank goodness for technology.

I'm at San Francisco International Airport about to board a fight for the Washington DC edition of the SpringOne Tour. Are you going to be in Washington DC? Reach out and say hi! My direct messages on Twitter are correct, too

Then, it's off to Kansas City, KS/MO for, among other things, an appearance at the Kansas City JUG this…

It was a lot of fun to talk to Greg Turnquist, one of the more industrious and variously applied members of the Spring family, about how he found his way to the Spring team and community, Python, his new book, Spring team legends like Keith Donald and Brian Dussault, and so much more.
