Building Hospitable Open Source Communities (Video)

Posted by Roblimo on Tuesday May 26, 2015 @06:10AM from the the-tirades-will-continue-until-morale-improves dept.

This is an 11 minute excerpt from an hour-long video, contributed by long-time Slashdot user Erik Möller. This video is the moving picture equivalent of the typical Slashdot summary of a text article, complete with a link to the main article, which in this case is a video (over an hour long) at PassionateVoices.org. Erik's interviewee, Sumana Harihareswara, is also a long-time Slashdot reader who claims (admits?) that she met her husband through a Slashdot link, albeit indirectly. She's spent most of the past decade working with open source, much of it as a community leader. If you are in a leadership role in an open source community or plan to lead one someday, you may want to listen to the complete interview. Sumana has many useful things to say about how open source communities should -- and shouldn't -- be run.

Thanks for the warning. Another SJW trying to make a quick buck. You just saved me an hour.

Because that is why it was posted. It is an inflammatory diatribe by a SJW. Check out her resume. Never worked long than 1 year at any place. Typical SJW who doesn't want to "do", just "talk".
