# ROS News for the Week of May 20th, 2024
[ROS Jazzy Jalisco is finally here!](http://discourse.ros.org/t/ros-2-jazzy-jalisco-released/37862?) Read all about it at [The Robot Report](https://www.therobotreport.com/ros-2-jazzy-jalisco-released-osrf/) and the [Intrinisc blog](https://www.intrinsic.ai/blog/posts/welcoming-jazzy-jalisco-as-the-latest-ros-2-release) or take it for a spin with [Jazzy DockerHub images](http://discourse.ros.org/t/ros-jazzy-docker-images/37879) or [ROS Docker OCI images including Jazzy](https://github.com/sloretz/ros_oci_images). We recommend checking out the [improved Gazebo integration](http://discourse.ros.org/t/ros-2-jazzy-jalisco-released/37862/13?u=katherine_scott) or if you are adventurous type, learning about the early preview of RMW Zenoh with @Yadunund.
It is ROSCon CFP season and lots is happening! @fmrico announced [ROSCon Spain](http://discourse.ros.org/t/roscon-espana-sevilla-19-y-20-de-septiembre-de-2024/37814)
this week and @destogl announced [ROSCon Germany](http://discourse.ros.org/t/roscon-de-2024-ankundigung/37854) this week. [ROSCon France is just a month away](http://discourse.ros.org/t/roscon-france-2024/35222), and we announced our first batch of sponsors for the big ROSCon this October in Odense
## 🚨 Most importantly talk proposals for ROSCon 2024 and ROSConJP are due on 2024-06-03T07:00:00Z 🚨
[Not long ago](http://discourse.ros.org/t/annnnd-blast-off-for-open-navigation-llc/31737) @smac hung his own shingle for the Nav2 project. In the past few month Steve and the team have made great strides in supporting the project. Nav2 has secured a number of sponsors and this week the project was accepted into [Github’s accelerator program.](http://discourse.ros.org/t/nav2-in-the-2024-github-accelerator/37869). [See Github’s Announcement](https://github.blog/2024-05-23-2024-github-accelerator-meet-the-11-projects-shaping-open-source-ai/)
