    Hello everybody!

    I would like to announce the December (2024) Ada Monthly Meetup which
    will be taking place on the 7th of December at 14:00 UTC time (15:00
    CET). As always the meetup will take place over at Jitsi. The Meetup
    will also be livestreamed/recorded to YouTube.

    **If someone would like to propose a talk or a topic, feel free to do
    so! We currently have no proposals.**

    Here are the connection details from previous posts:
    The meetup will take place over at Jitsi, a conferencing software that
    runs on any modern browser. The link is Jitsi Meet [1]. The room name is "AdaMonthlyMeetup" and in case it asks for a password, it will be set to "AdaRules".
    I do not want to set up a password, but in case it is needed, it will
    be the one above without the quotes. The room name is generally not
    needed as the link should take you directly there, but I want to write
    it down just in case someone needs it.

    Also, this will be the last Monthly Meetup for a long while! There
    will be none in

    Hi all,

    the meetup is now over. Here are the minutes of the meetup:

    * A strong reminder of the Ada Crate of the Year competition [01]. The
    deadline is approaching quickly! There are three prices, one for Ada,
    another for SPARK and finally another for embedded system crates!
    Here is the forum thread covering the topic [02].

    * A reminder that Advent of Code 2024 [03] is now live.

    + AdaCore, like last year, is going to donate money [04] based on
    the amount of solutions and submission that are being done in Ada
    or SPARK. The submissions need to be done in this forum thread [05]
