With OnSecurity, OnNetworking, OnMicrosoft, and OnSoftware under our belt, we set out with a mission to contribute engaging and cutting-edge podcast conversations to the open source community. And so, at the O'Reilly Open Source Convention (OSCON) this past July, we sat down with some super involved and renowned community members to pick their brains on the various projects they're individually involved with, as well as to hear their thoughts on the future of open source.
