Hi, in recent times a lot of discussion has been about roadmap, cummunity and contribution.
Here is a nice podcast from our "competitors": Becoming an Open Source Developer: Lessons from the Django Project (PyCon 2007) http://advocacy.python.org/podcasts/pycon/PyCon2007-BecomingOSDeveloper.mp3 It almost seems like a joke: a family-owned newspaper in Lawrence, KS (population 80,000) releases an open-source web framework. It's not a joke, of course: today Django is an increasingly popular web development platform. As an open-source community Django has been incredibly successful; in Tim O'Reilly's OSCON keynote, he called Django "the new face of open source." But it's often unclear how we got here. How did a couple of programmers at a newspaper convince management to contribute to the open-source ecosystem? How does the company justify the time its developers spend on open source? And how have we as individuals and as a business had to adapt to become better open source developers? In this session: ten lessons in becoming an open source developer from the Django project. I think a good piece to learn from.
