Hello everyone,  
We are pleased to announce that SciML is now a NumFOCUS Sponsored Project!

> **[SciML - NumFOCUS](https://numfocus.org/project/sciml)**
>
> SciML is an open source software organization created to unify the packages for scientific machine learning. This includes the development of modular scientific simulation support software, such as differential equation solvers, along with the...

We thank the Julia community which has been instrumental in helping grow to this point. The purpose of the SciML organization is likely well-known to you all, to develop high-performance methodologies for modeling and simulation and make them compatible with techniques of machine learning to allow for automating scientific discoveries and surrogate generation of scientific models. The purpose of this change is to help grow the community and fund many of the events that we have planned, so stay tuned to any announcements as these come up. To follow our organization, subscribe to the News blog:

or our (very new!) subreddit:

We will also keep reaching out to the Julia community with a lot of our announcements to keep you all informed of our changes and updates. Once again, thank you all very much for helping us get here!
