 As the pyOpenSci community has continued to grow, we wanted to dedicate at least one newsletter issue a month to sharing conversations, contributions, and news related to our diverse and vibrant community! This month we’re celebrating everyone who’s participated in a pyOpenSci sprint, sharing the exciting news around the Spanish translation of our Python Packaging Guide, and elevating a discussion from GitHub around the use of Hatch for Python package creation.

 Education is one of the [three petals of pyOpenSci](https://www.pyopensci.org/blog/pyos-education-announcement.html), and to that end we strive to create resources that help learners navigate the Python packaging ecosystem with ease. This means that when we find our community members and scientists encountering consistent issues with trying to make their workflows more open and reproducible, or trying to build a Python package, we look for ways to lower (or ideally remove!) the barrier for learners. And this was exactly the scenario we were faced with in our beginner-friendly packaging tutorials. We decided that Hatch is a great user-friendly tool that scientists can use to package and share their code. However, in developing and teaching our [Get to know Hatch tutorial](https://www.pyopensci.org/python-package-guide/tutorials/get-to-know-hatch.html), we found scientists struggling to install a tool called [`pipx`](https://github.com/pypa/pipx) that can be used to install Hatch globally, rather than in a Python environment. This was causing a host of problems (in large part because `pipx` can be tricky to install on Windows machines!)

 ## <i class="fa-solid fa-earth-americas"></i> Coming soon: a Spanish translation of the pyOpenSci Python Package Guide
 
-This past May, during our [PyCon US sprints](https://www.pyopensci.org/blog/pyopensci-pyconus-2024-sprints.html), pyOpenSci community member [Felipe Moreno](https://github.com/flpm) submitted [an issue to our Python Package Guide GitHub repository](https://github.com/pyOpenSci/python-package-guide/issues/287), asking if we had considered translating the guide to Spanish. Felipe is an experienced security engineering manager with a strong background in Python software development, data science and user-centered design, who leads the Security Data Science team at [Bloomberg LP](https://www.bloomberg.com/company/). Felipe has worked with other projects, setting up infrastructure support through [Sphinx](https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/) for this kind of work. We were, of course, immediately thrilled with the idea, and took Felipe up on the offer! From there, Felipe built a PR that created a [translation guide for contributors](https://github.com/pyOpenSci/python-package-guide/pull/304), along with another PR that [provides internationalization support](https://github.com/pyOpenSci/python-package-guide/pull/298).

 Following Felipe’s initial efforts, several of our SciPy sprint attendees continued to work on translation of the pyOpenSci Python Packaging Guide, and you can see their progress in the [guide repository on GitHub](https://github.com/pyOpenSci/python-package-guide/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Ascipy-24). This has resulted in 13 PRs to our packaging guide. Our next steps are to create an editorial team composed of members who are fluent in Spanish/native speakers. This team will be  responsible for reviewing and merging these contributions. Stay tuned for updates on this incredible community-driven project!

 ## <i class="fa-solid fa-rainbow"></i> All the credit for our contributors
 
 We have been absolutely floored by the community involvement with pyOpenSci over the last few months, and wanted to take a moment to recognize everyone who has been a part of our sprints at both [PyCon US](https://us.pycon.org/2024/) and [SciPy](https://www.scipy2024.scipy.org/)! In total we’ve had over 30 contributors submit 65 issues to six different pyOpenSci repos between the two events, which is incredible.
