We're back for Day 2 of with the opening keynote by Hempal Shrestha. He is introducing the past, present, and future of the community in Nepal.

I love how this is starting: a steward of the culture and the movement in painting a picture of how the local movement got to where it is today, the successes, and the challenges. There are so many students here. Inspiring the next generation for folks who are coming in and are hungry for more .

I am amazed that the history is so deep and reach. From talking to government ministers and training policymakers on , to building code and software for Nepalese users, Nepal is not new to the movement.

I am learning so much about the ambition from the local movement!

@niktrip is on stage now at sharing her wisdom and experience with @Krita and why it is one of the best available tools for artists and graphic designers.

I am getting to know Krita much better and I also love the shout-out to the @fedora @creativefreedom challenge!
