### Editor's Note ### Greetings, friends! On this fine Tuesday, we've published a piece from new writer (!!) Patrick Finch, who explains his work on a recent project for the Mozilla Foundation. Patrick helped craft a report that outlines some "open source archetypes," general community personas that can help us understand the motivations that drive various open organizations, the forces and factors shaping their governance models, and lots more. It's critical reading for anyone looking to connect with an external community!
