February Keeney from GitHub appears on this episode of the Irish Tech News Podcast

Ronan was at AlterConf, a travelling conference series that provides safe opportunities for marginalised people and those who support them in the tech and gaming industries, and one of the speakers February Keeney, spoke to Ronan about her background and her work as the engineering manager for the Community & Safety team at GitHub, one of the top open source platforms. GitHub decided to put money and people behind actually making Github a platform that is safe and inclusive and February talks about some of the work her team does to make this happen and how they deal with online abuse.
