I concur with Ted and Heikki, this is an excellent book and I highly
recommend it.
On a related note, I wanted to let everyone know that Ted is working on
a writeup framing some of the issues the book raises (as well as issues
from his experience at Apache helping "incubator" projects become full
Apache projects). The writeup should be a great start to an open
conversation about what this should mean for OSAF, Chandler, Cosmo and
Scooby (from governance structure to project home pages).
I look forward to the conversation -- I believe Ted will bring it up
once we're past Chandler's 0.6 finishing crush.
Cheers,
Katie
