‘Don’t Accept the Defaults’ -Abel Wang

I am April Edwards and every week I try to bring you the latest updates from around the DevOps on Azure community. If you have a post you’d like to have me include, I am always listening. You can reach out on Twitter or LinkedIn and I will be sure to share your latest post with the community. Also, be sure to tag your posts with #AzureDevOps!

It has been an extremely busy few weeks! Microsoft Build 2022 has just wrapped up and it was an amazing event! It was hosted online and several cities featured hybrid event. In the UK we hosted live in from our UK offices and it was awesome to see all the MVPs and community back in real life!

For those of you that have attended Microsoft Build may remember our late colleague Abel Wang. Abel was a pillar at Build and his presence is greatly missed. Last year, he was undergoing chemo and still made an appearance, that guy is THE rockstar!

In his honor we are raising money for Girls Who Code. This is an organization that was near and dear to Abel’s heart, it’s the best way that we can honor him. We’re looking to raise £10,000 and Microsoft will match 100% of your donations! On top of that, if we hit our goal, we have several Microsoft execs that will also personally donate (also getting matching). Take a minute and donate:

Also, we are offering up the ‘Don’t Accept the Defaults T-shirts for a limited time: https://aka.ms/Build2022/ForAbel 100% of the proceeds go to Girls Who Code.
