Dear FINOS Community,
Happy New Year and welcome back to what promises to be an exciting year of Open Source at FINOS!
In normal FINOS style, we don't like to coast into our work, so join the excitement by raising pull requests, suggesting new features, communicating issues and joining working group calls. We look forward to growing the industry with you in 2020.
In the meantime, for those in the UK who'd like to join me at the first Fintech and Banking meetup of the year, I'll be in Bristol on Jan 7th at South West Leaders in Tech on the discussion panel with Nationwide, RBS, Tide and Tumelo.
