Ithaca NY, Boston MA With pride in the community participation that
powers open source repository platform development, DuraSpace and the
Fedora Commons Repository Project are pleased to announce that Kai
Strnad will serve as Community Release Manager for the upcoming
release of Fedora Repository 3.3.
Kai is a Software Engineer with FIZ Karlsruhe, and has been a member
of the eSciDoc (https://www.escidoc.org/) Team since early 2008. His
current roles include performance and scalability, eSciDoc core
framework, development and other eSciDoc and Fedora-related projects.
Non-profit organizations dedicated to open source development depend
on community contributions both from individuals and the organizations
that support them. The willingness of skilled community members like
Kai Stnad and others to participate in the overall direction and
details of delivering an integrated platform upgrade is appreciated by
all who benefit from the improvements. Eric S. Raymond, a long-time
open source analyst, observed in his 1997 essay “The Cathedral and the
Bazaar,” that programmers who freely share their code drive Internet
culture and innovation because their contributions allow open source
software to undergo constant improvement by users and developers.
