Public Presentations Terms and Conditions

I have been an IT professional for over 30 years. I have been speaking publicly and presenting at conferences for probably 25 years. I have presented to all types of groups, from small user groups to large conferences, literally around the world. As I enter the last part of my IT career, I am re-assessing what role conferences will play, and where I want to devote my energy and financial resources. The truth is, that as much as I enjoy presenting and meeting people, there is always a trade-off between the time and money spent on conferences and the value I get from them.

Beginning in 2024, I have decided to make some hard decisions. If you are involved in a conference or event where I have spoken in the past, this may be of interest to you. The bottom line is that I am now very selective about what events and conferences I will present at. Let's dive into some details, and of course there will be exceptions, which I'll cover in a bit.

PowerShell Podcast ScriptingChallenge

This is the PowerShell scripting challenge from my appearance on the PowerShell Podcast

Base Challenge

Using whatever tools and techniques you want, write a PowerShell function that will query the Issues section of a GitHub repository and create output showing the number of open issues by label and the percentage of all open issues. Remember that multiple labels may be used with an issue.

For example, if there are 54 open issues and the bug label is used 23 times,your output would show a count of 23 and a total percentage of 42.59 for the bug
