Evidently github and other companies are celebrating October as an open-source awareness month thingy . _cough_schoolstarting_cough_  
[https://codeburst.io/get-ready-for-hacktoberfest-contribute-to-open-source-get-a-free-shirt-275b1392e445](https://codeburst.io/get-ready-for-hacktoberfest-contribute-to-open-source-get-a-free-shirt-275b1392e445)

No guarantee what is going to go down, but if you have some changes you’ve wanted to make to DDA, code, json, documentation fixes, typos, whatever, maybe now is the time to do it and _maybe_ there’s some tshirts or something in it for you.

I’ll post any swag offers I run across here throughout the month.

That pretty cool, I’m not a coder or anything, but still nice to see!
