The Raspberry Pi Foundation today announced that it's canceled several events--and taken another online--because of the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. But it also said the outbreak hasn't affected the supply of its single-board computers, at least for now, and it's working with its partners to make sure that remains the case.
The foundation said it canceled the upcoming Coolest Projects UK and Coolest Projects International events where Raspberry Pi enthusiasts can show off their work because "there is just too much uncertainty for us to continue to ask young people, parents, mentors, and volunteers to make travel and other arrangements."
In addition to canceling its events, the Raspberry Pi Foundation said it advised "tens of thousands of brilliant human beings" leading community events to "follow the local public health advice in their country or region and take decisions on whether to cancel their club or event in consultation with the venues that host them."
