Actions

Tweet out the talks from the WG Twitter :)
- possibly ping the speakers to see if they have twitter accounts and mention them etc
Ping Paul/Lorenz on 0.2 release of linfa before the London Meetup
- 0.1.2 is really far behind the main branch so it would be very nice to cut a new release
Possibly move linfa off Travis CI to GitHub Actions
talk to London meetup person to see if we can get the WG on the annoucment ✅
