Building collective ownership
Getting the community more involved
Admitting that software has bugs
Admitting that we can't do everything
Important People™
Who decides?
... but it's My Baby!
Considered:
Non-profit organization, forming a community of open-source software projects.
Strong emphasis on openness, collaboration and a consensus-based development process.
Examples: Apache HTTP server, Tomcat, Maven,
Jena, CXF and OpenOffice.
Fully open development
Encourage further developer involvement
Remove impression of Univ of Manchester as leader
..reducing us vs them conversations
Independent and neutral
Open and strong governance
Centrally managed infrastructure
Less political
easier to say "We'll use and contribute to Apache Taverna" in a grant proposal
Longer term sustainability - self-managed community
TLP: Top-Level Project, self-managed Apache project
Incubator: A special TLP for new projects
Podling (incubating): New project within the Incubator

Subject: [VOTE] Release Apache Taverna Language 0.15.0-incubating RC2 (shortened)
To: dev@taverna.incubator.apache.org
I am pleased to be calling this vote for the source release of
Apache Taverna Language 0.15.0-incubating
The release candidates to be voted over are available at:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/taverna/source/taverna-language-0.15.0-incubating-RC2/
SHA-1 checksum: 7032e9d2be834f7c029aae562b62613481bf6939
Build the release candidate in the above order, using: mvn clean install
The release candidates correspond to the following git commits:
https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=incubator-taverna-language.git;a=commit;h=3340e2090e604b40ac0b88675f57c1d12032d060
Release candidates are signed with a GPG key available at:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/taverna/KEYS
The vote is open for at least 72 hours and passes if a
majority of at least three +1 Apache Taverna PPMC votes are cast.
[ ] +1 Release this package
[ ] 0 I don't feel strongly about it, but don't object
[ ] -1 Do not release this package because...
Community over Code
Open:
If it didn't happen on the mailing list, it didn't happen
Everybody has a say
Merit - win by doing it
Personal merit - not organizational
Users and Developers
..are they really separate?
Ask not what can I do for the user,
but what can the user do for me
Give teasers to potential committers
"I think the problem is somewhere in this file"
... without saying "You're on your own, mate"!
Recognize any contributions, not just code
Docs, training, examples, help, discussions, ...
Submitting patches/pull requests
Contributing to mailing lists
Contributing to testing, documentation, website
Contributing a plugin or new feature
Participate in votes and discussions
Act as if you are already a committer
PMC vote (in private) on a proposed new committer
Students paid to work on open source projects
Google sponsored
2015: 137 organizations, 988 students
ASF: 49 students
Apache Taverna: 3 students
Project mailing lists/forum
Issue trackers
Support mail
Private communications
Chat channels
Domain-specific forums
StackOverflow and Biostars.org
Domain-specific conferences and workshops
Moving all infrastructure:
Mailing lists, Source code repositories, wiki,
issue tracker, web pages
GitHub pull request workflow
integrated with mailing list
All transitioning discussed in public
..might scare people :-(
Depends..
Taverna - lots of infrastructure
Jira w/1000s of old and new issues,
Wordpress,
30 GitHub repositories
months
Commons RDF: Single GitHub repository, GitHub pages. 1 week
ASF gives strong template for community building
.. and initial bureaucracy :-(
Worth it in the long run!
Licensing is boring, but necessary
Mentors are kind and helpful
Community building takes effort
Community growth is fun
Giving up "control" gives peace and openness
It's not your project, but your community's project!
So your existing community should decide
Find a champion from an existing Apache project
Are you ready for Open Development?
Are you already there?
Do you have time to guide the community
towards "the Apache Way"?
Apache not a magic bullet
You still need to do the work!
