Description:

The Open Source software development model empowers everyone to chase their aspirations. It could be an occasional tinkering to get things right or, a full time employment that brings about significant impact. Not all participants in an Open Source ecosystem want the same outcome. Stakeholders in projects bring different desires and drivers, sometimes they are contradictory but often these are not.

Over the years Red Hat has participated in some of the most innovative communities which have made incredible technological breakthroughs. This talk will provide a quick overview of how to obtain a shared understanding of the various facets of contribution.
