+# ModVerse Weekly - Issue 11
+
+## Introduction 📰
+
+Welcome to Issue 11!
+
+ModCon is less than one week away, and we've been crunching to land some extra
+features for `mojo v0.6.0` in preparation for the demos. The team is very
+excited to share what we've built!
+
+Due to overwhelming demand and selling out tickets, we decided to livestream the
+keynote so that everyone can enjoy the announcements together. The videos from
+the smaller lightning talks will be released to YouTube at a later date. Chat
+will be disabled on YouTube so make sure to join the Discord where everyone will
+be hanging out in the `#modcon` channel.
