SUMMARY:Building a Thriving Open Source Community: Best Practices for Attracting and Retaining Contributor
DESCRIPTION:Join Open Mainframe Project for a special webinar on Wednesday\, October 11 at 9 am PT/12 pm ET. Register here: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_XNpNLYNeRkuIvvwPXxkEXg \nOpen source communities are an important part of the software development landscape\, allowing individuals from around the world to collaborate and contribute to projects. However\, building and maintaining a thriving open-source community can be challenging. This presentation will explore the best practices for attracting and retaining contributors to your open-source project. We will begin by discussing the importance of creating a welcoming environment for contributors\, including clear documentation and communication channels. We will also cover strategies for incentivizing participation\, such as mentorship opportunities. Additionally\, we will explore the role of diversity and inclusion in open-source communities\, and how to create a culture that values and celebrates differences. We will provide real-world examples of successful open-source communities. By the end of this presentation\, attendees will have a clear understanding of the best practices for building and maintaining a thriving open-source community. They will be equipped with practical tips and strategies that they can implement in their own projects to attract and retain contributors. \n \nSpeaker Andrej Chmelo is a software engineer at Broadcom with a passion for advancing the field of technology. With a focus on innovation and collaboration\, he is an integral and active member of the Zowe community\, contributing his expertise to drive the project. \nRegister for the webinar here.

SUMMARY:All Things Open (Raleigh\, NC)
DESCRIPTION:All Things Open will be hosted on October 15-17 in Raleigh\, North Carolina. ATO is an educational conference where attendees learn about new technologies and topics\, and it’s always been that way. The goal is for attendees to leave having learned something or been made aware of something new. \nOpen Mainframe Project will be featured in the event in this session: \nMonday\, October 16:\n2:45 – 3:30 pm: Linux Distribution Collaboration …on a Mainframe! – Elizabeth Joseph\, Global Head\, Open Source Program Office for IBM zSystems & LinuxONE at IBM \nLinux has run on the mainframe architecture (s390x) for over 20 years now\, and there’s even Linux-only mainframe hardware! But tight collaboration between the Linux distributions is rather new. Enter the Open Mainframe Project Linux Distributions Working Group\, founded in late 2021. \nBringing together various Linux distributions\, both corporate-backed and community-driven\, representatives from openSUSE\, Debian\, Fedora\, SUSE\, and more immediately joined the effort to share bug reports and patches that impact all the distributions. Issues are often shared and discussed on the mailing list\, and more complicated topics covered during the monthly meetings. The working group has a number of success stories that will be shared. \nFuture potential issues are also tackled\, and notes shared about upstream changes that may soon impact the package processes. In the latest effort\, the team has started thinking about actual upstream projects to invite to our group to be more pro-active about changes that may cause problems on the s390x architecture. \nBut more importantly\, this is a story about community and collaboration. Many people view the various Linux distributions as a competitive space\, but like so much of the open source software community\, we are all more successful when we share knowledge about our core. The success of this working group\, and growing enthusiasm for it from new Linux distributions who are joining\, is a great example of this. \nAll Things Open is not managed by the Linux Foundation or Open Mainframe Project.
