Pump.io by Alex Jordan
========

Pump.io is a promising project to create a federated social network. It 
was abandoned for a while, but its maintainer has recently started 
transferring governance and code maintenance to the community. Come to 
this talk to learn details about what Pump.io is, why it's awesome, and 
the future plans for it.

Note that this was formerly a lightning talk dealing mostly with the 
community, but has since expanded to a full session. We'll use the extra 
time to talk a little about the history of where Pump.io comes from and 
its API. The latter is also why this session is "intermediate", instead of 
the original "beginner".

Alex Jordan is a core developer of the Pump.io reference implementation. 
No prior knowledge necessary.
