In this episode, I was joined by both Irina Dominte and Jonathan Tower to chat about the .NET Foundation. They both recently ran for the .NET Foundation’s board of directors, and were elected! 👏 We chatted about their experiences running for the board, what the election process was like, and their initial experiences as board members.
