Flying SNN->JFK today. Bracing for the weather change. Sincerely hope I don’t melt! I’ll be at the OSPOs For Good meetings at UN Plaza.

Enjoying #OSPOsforGood2024 with Danese Cooper InnerSource Commons #opensource

Spending today and tomorrow at United Nations Plaza listening to various people’s thoughts on Open Source Program Offices. There’s LOTS of listening, and very little actual collaboration (so far, at least).

And the amazing Ben Cerveny of publiccode.net, who was a strong voice of truth and reason in the panel on which he served!

David Nalley David Nalley showing poise and honesty admitting that he’s “only” been working in Open Source for 13 years. He’s currently President of Apache - The ASF. So refreshing to hear honesty when quoting credentials.

Apache - The ASF President David Nalley received a large round of applause for his contributions to the panel including the sentiment that communities exist to solve problems #opensource #community

julia ferraioli David Nalley 😮Fun fact: Apache - The ASF has an Apache Attic 🗃️ where the ENTIRETY of any ASF project no longer having an active community will be available read-only, forever.♾ Code, history, mailing list, website, issue trackers, documentation, everything, all at the original URLs. 😌

There was a fair amount of InnerSource mention yesterday, which is encouraging

"We often throw around the word corporation or organizations to support open source but they don't - people do? How are foundations supporting the people who do the work?" Duane O'Brien is @[email protected] Danese Cooper #OSPOsforGood2024 #opensource
