* '''RustConf 2020''' -- One month from today, on August 20th, we’d love to have you join us for [https://rustconf.com/ RustConf 2020]. This year marks the fifth annual RustConf and, as you’d expect, the 2020 edition will be an all on-line virtual event. Mozilla’s very own Nell Shamrell-Harrington will be the host for this year’s conference, which in addition to presentations and content will include community Discord rooms, digital breakouts and meetups, and some real-time polling to make it an interactive experience. All the pertinent details -- speakers, schedule, how to take part, and even some digital swag -- are available on the [https://rustconf.com/ conference web site].
* '''Firefox Voice Speaks''' -- We’ve released v0.22 of Firefox DesktopVoice, which introduces new text-to-speech capabilities. Now not only can you use your voice to interact with Firefox (“What’s the weather in Seattle?”) but Firefox will be able to speak in response (“It’s raining.”). The code for v0.22 is on [https://github.com/mozilla/firefox-voice Github] and as soon as we wrap up some packaging efforts will be installable through the Firefox Voice [https://voice.mozilla.org/firefox-voice/ web page] and/or the Firefox Voice add-on itself (if you have it installed already).
* '''Celebration Reminder''' -- We mentioned last week that this week we’d be celebrating the fifteenth anniversary of MDN this week. We’ll have more details and a recap next week, but did want to remind you to keep an eye on [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/ MDN], our [https://hacks.mozilla.org/ Hacks blog], [https://mozilla.dev/ Mozilla Developer Portal], social media, and other relevant locations for activities commemorating the amazing history, community contributions, and impact of MDN.
