For those of you who don't know, in addition to being Cyber Security
Awareness Month, it's also Hacktoberfest!  Hacktoberfest is a month-long
celebration of open source software.

A word from *DigitalOcean:*

Contributors of the world, we’re excited to announce that DigitalOcean’s
*fourth* annual *Hacktoberfest* officially kicks off on Sunday, October 1.
If you’ve been meaning to give back to your favorite open source
projects—or if you want to make your first-ever contributions—set aside
time this October to start hacking. You can earn a *limited-edition
Hacktoberfest T-shirt* and *stickers*!

This year, we have resources available on local Hacktoberfest Meetups (and
how to start one), finding issues to work on, learning how to contribute to
open source, and resources for project maintainers who want to attract
participants to their projects. You can find all of these resources and
register to participate on the official Hacktoberfest website
<https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com>.

For more information is available on the Hacktoberfest website!:

(You can also ask Chase for help/information on participating in
Hacktoberfest 2017! 😉 )

Happy Hacking,
Chase Lee
ACM/LUG Systems Administrator
