Hello, community,
I'd like to start a discussion of hosting a Dubbo activity next week, the
activity would be called 'Baiji' and most of the participants would expect to
be students from college. The activity will mainly include the following three
parts: Introduce of The Apache Software Foundation and The Apache Way,
Introduction of Dubbo, Contribute to Dubbo: solve issues reported by the
community.
In fact, Alibaba is one of the original proponents of Baiji. They think it is
very important to have students (going to start an internship in Alibaba) know
about the history and importance of Open Source. And considering the great work
and success that The Apache Community has achieved in running open source
projects and the wide adoption of Apache Dubbo (Incubating) in China, they
think that Dubbo can be a good project to start. Notice that this time the
participants would be a limited number of students going to start an internship
in Alibaba. But STH bigger we can expect is that, with the experience gained
here, I think maybe (an idea Ian has also suggested ) we can consider a broader
national event that will cover more students, something like GSOC hold by
Google every year.
We expect students and the community to have the following benefits：
• Learn about The Apache Way and bring it back to school.
• Learn how to participate in an Apache open source project.
• Learn what is Dubbo, what problems does Dubbo resolve and how it
works.
• Have a chance to contribute to the Apache/Dubbo community.
• Get more developers involved in the community.
Below are the issues or exercises I have selected for the participants, I think
these are suitable for new developers to easily start the journey with Dubbo.
This is the part we desperately need your advice, if you've got any issues that
are more suitable, please let us know.
