Everbridge was unable to accommodate us.<br><div><br>This is partly a survey to get some data for our speaker, and partly a SAVE THE DATE for any veteran open source contributors who want to add to the discussion.<br></div></div><div><div><div><br>The talk will be about best practices for open sourcing a project. Our speaker was curious about the target audience, so he could tailor the talk accordingly.<br></div></div><div><div><div><div><br><div><div><div>My interest in this topic is literally about the process of growing an open source project and a community of core contributors beyond the original team. I'm an IT professional with a programming background and an interest in community building. I want to hear real word tips and stories about running or contributing to an open source project<br><div><br><div><div><div>How about you? What is your interest and background?<span></span></div><div><span></span><br><div><div><div>If you contribute regularly to open source projects, come to the October LUG and share your stories. <br></div><div><div><br><div>Thanks,<br>Lan<br></div></div><div><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
