<div dir="ltr">Hello PatternFliers, The September PatternFly Monthly Report highlighted the <a href="https://github.com/patternfly/patternfly-design" style="text-decoration:none">PatternFly design repo</a> and we are proud to share the initial growth in activity surrounding this effort. Comparing October to September, we saw a 50% increase in stars, 67% increase in total contributors and a 240% increase in total pull requests. You can see more details regarding these metrics below under "October Metrics". Thank you to everyone who has jumped on board to this new process. I encourage you to watch or star this <a href="https://github.com/patternfly/patternfly-design" style="text-decoration:none">repo</a> to stay up-to-date on the all the latest PatternFly designs. <div dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"> </div>In October, we also started the <a href="https://patternfly.slack.com/" style="text-decoration:none">PatternFly Slack</a> channel. We already have 64 members and have seen a lot of great conversations and collaboration as a result. We have no plans of getting rid of our #patternfly channel on <a href="https://webchat.freenode.net/" style="text-decoration:none">freenode</a> at this time, however we do point to the Slack channel as our primary place for conversation. <div dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"> </div>PatternFly was recognized at a couple of conferences in October. PatternFly was featured at Open Hardware Summit 2016 in a talk about <a href="https://twitter.com/harriskenny/status/784468339749859328" style="text-decoration:none">Libre Marketing</a> by <a href="https://twitter.com/harriskenny" style="text-decoration:none">Harris Kenny</a>, VP Marketing at <a href="https://www.lulzbot.com/">LulzBot3D</a>. Big thanks to Harris for including PatternFly and continuing to promote the project. Additionally, we saw <a href="https://twitter.com/serenamarie125/status/783223565235720192" style="text-decoration:none">PatternFly mentioned at the Red Hat Forum UK</a>.
