This talk focuses on community tips told through science fiction. While the topic is fun and a little silly, the lessons about communities are real and tangible. Here are just a few of the things that I will talk about: * Borg assimilation and bringing new community members into your collective for new ideas. * Specialization is for insects. The best community members are the ones who can help in a wide variety of ways. * Travel to strange new worlds and meet interesting people.

BIGGER ONTHE INSIDE
Communities look very different
from the inside than
when viewing them as an outsider

ALL ABOUTTHE PEOPLE
Communities are about the
people who participate,
not about the leaders

DON’T GOTOO FAR
Take time to understand the community
and participate gently to start
without doing too much at once

DON’T BE A REDSHIRT
Participate and contribute
in a way that people will
notice and value your work
Read John Scalzi’s ‘Redshirts’

SPECIALIZATION IS FOR INSECTS
The best community members
are the ones who can help
in a wide variety of ways

3 LAWS AND GUIDELINES
Guidelines / code of conduct
that change and evolve as needed

ANDROIDS AND EMPATHY
Don’t act like an android,
show empathy and
consider the impact of your actions

YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED
Bring new community
members into your
collective for new ideas

COMMUNITY METRICS
Measure community activity
to track progress, identify issues and
recognize great community members

NO MONSTERS
Different isn’t bad,
disagree with ideas,
not the person

MENTORING
Train the next generation
and help others succeed

THEYOUNG CAN CONTRIBUTE
Age is often unknown,
encourage young people
to contribute

STRONG WOMEN
Encourage women in our ﬁeld
and get more women
speaking at our events

CONTROL ISSUES
Maintain balance
to keep things productive
while not being too controlling

PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
Travel and
meet interesting people
working on global projects

NOT AS EASY AS IT SEEMS
It's not all parties and fun travel.
It’s also a lot of real work and
sometimes means being the bad cop.

DON’T PANIC
Things will go wrong
keep things in perspective
calmly recover

Navigating Open Source Risk

Dawn Foster

Open source projects that are controlled by a single company are at a greater risk of changes that are not aligned with community interests, whereas projects that are under neutral foundations have a lower risk both for end users and software vendors. With advantages that include community building, innovation, and wider adoption, we should consider contributing more of our open source projects to neutral foundations. This talk will cover: * Challenges of giving up control and why it might be worth it. * Selecting a foundation and how to determine neutrality. * Creating a fair and neutral governance structure and processes for your project. * Tips for contributing and maintaining your project. The audience will get practical advice about whether they should contribute their projects to neutral foundations along with how and when to do it.

The unbridled success of Kubernetes can be attributed in part to being in the CNCF. Putting Kubernetes under a neutral foundation provided a level playing field where each of us could contribute, collaborate, and innovate as equals to create a widely adopted solution that we can all use. Open source projects that are controlled by a single company are at a greater risk of changes that are not aligned with community interests, whereas projects that are under neutral foundations have a lower risk both for end users and software vendors. The audience will get practical advice about creating a fair and neutral governance structure and processes for your open source project along with tips for how to determine whether a foundation is neutral.

While there is quite a bit of data about the people and companies who commit Linux kernel code, there isn’t much data about how people work together on the kernel mailing lists where they decide what patches will be accepted. Using a few of the top subsystem mailing lists as examples, Dawn Foster will share her PhD research into how people collaborate on the kernel mailing lists, including network visualizations of mailing list interactions between contributors. You can expect to learn more about the people, their employers, and other data that impacts how people participate on the mailing lists. For example, do timezones influence collaboration? How about source code contributions? Dawn will also give a brief overview of her 20+ year career both before and after going back to school to get her PhD along with some information about her involvement in OpenUK.

As an employee, it can be difficult to strike the right balance between the needs of the company and the needs of the open source Kubernetes project. This can create friction and put significant pressure on employees who participate in Kubernetes on behalf of their company when the needs of the individual, the company, and the community are not aligned. This talk will focus on ways to create this alignment between individuals, companies, and the community required to be successful participants in Kubernetes.

Being a Good Corporate Citizen in Open Source

Dawn Foster

Your company has just started an open source project, but where is the community? This talk provides practical tips and suggestions along with what not to do when building a community around your company’s open source project. Building a community around your company’s open source project is no easy task, and there is no magic bullet or one size fits all solution. However, there are some things that you can do (or not do) to increase the chances of successfully building a community for your project. A few of the dos and don’ts covered in this talk include: * Planning and product management: Do use a transparent process in the open with tools that allow anyone to participate. Don’t use your internal tools and private meetings to make all of the decisions. * Encourage participation: Do be proactive about helping community members contribute in meaningful ways. Don’t inadvertently set the expectation that employees will be the ones always answering questions and making decisions. * Be honest: Do be honest with yourselves about where and how you prefer to have community members contribute. Don’t encourage people to contribute in areas where you are less likely to accept outside contributions. * Managing contributions: Do have enough people trained in how to provide constructive feedback to manage the flow of incoming community contributions. Don’t assume that your existing developers have the time and skills to magically perform this difficult function. The audience will walk away with practical advice about building communities for corporate open source projects.

Building Community for your Company’s OSS Project

Dawn Foster

Bad hiring managers refer to massive lists of nice-to-haves as requirements, which encourages incompetent blowhards to apply. They hire ninjas who sneak around and rock stars with huge egos. Over Dawn’s 20+ year career in technology and OSS, she has seen many terrible hiring practices at various tech companies. This Ignite talk is a slightly snarky view into what it takes to be a terrible hiring manager.

Joint talk at KubeCon San Diego 2019 with Jorge Castro. You’re new to Kubernetes and interested in contributing, but when you start poking through the community pages, you find a bunch of SIGs and so many meetings. What’s a SIG? Where should you start? Which meetings should you attend? How can you participate? In this talk, Jorge and Dawn from SIG Contributor Experience will live out a week within the Kubernetes community by walking the audience through what happens in this busy community. As part of the day by day tour of the community, we will cover: * Getting started and locating meeting calendars * Finding and participating in SIGs * Attending meetings and what to expect * How to get involved * Where to get help New contributors, users interested in contributing, engineering managers whose teams are contributing, and anyone interested in learning about new ways to get involved in the Kubernetes community will benefit from attending.

Collaboration within open source projects is becoming increasingly important for companies, but it can be difficult to strike the right balance between the needs of the company and the open source project. This can create friction and put significant pressure on employees who participate on behalf of their company when the needs of the individual, the company, and the community are not aligned. This talk will focus on ways to create this alignment between individuals, companies, and the community to help all of us be successful together. The talk covers: * Dynamics of collaboration in open source projects between individuals, companies, and communities. * Strategies for participating in ways that will benefit your company, your employees, and the community. * Tips for being a good corporate citizen as you contribute to open source projects. This presentation is primarily for open source program offices, but community managers and other OSS contributors would also benefit.

Open Source Collaboration and Companies: Finding the Right Balance

You probably know that community metrics are important, but how do you come up with a plan and figure out what you want to measure? Most open source projects have a very diverse community infrastructure with some combination of code repositories, chat, mailing lists, wikis, forums, and more. Deciding where to focus and what to measure across these many technologies can be a challenge. What you measure can have a huge impact on behavior within the community, and you want to make sure that you are encouraging people to contribute in sane ways by measuring the activities that matter for your project. This presentation will cover how you decide what to measure and provide some examples.

Collaboration within open source projects is becoming increasingly important for most companies, but it can be difficult to strike the right balance between the needs of the company and the open source project. Dawn Foster works on open source software strategy at Pivotal and has 20+ years of experience leading open source software initiatives at companies like Puppet Labs, Intel, and Jive Software. Her talk will focus on how companies can develop a successful strategy for participation and collaboration in open source projects, including how to be a good corporate citizen.

Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/why-teams-call-analytics-is-critical-to-your-entire-business Nothing is as frustrating and noticeable as being in an important call and being unable to see or hear the other person. Not surprising then, that issues with Teams calls are among the most common problems users call their helpdesk for. Having in depth insight into everything relevant going on at the user’s device, local network, ISP and Microsoft itself during the call is crucial for good Microsoft Teams Call quality support. To ensure a quick and adequate solution and to ensure your users get the most out of their Microsoft 365. But did you know that ‘bad calls’ are also an excellent indicator of other problems arising? Precisely because it is so noticeable!? Like the canary in the mine, bad calls can be early indicators of problems. Problems that might otherwise not have been noticed for a while but can have a big impact on productivity and satisfaction. Join this session by Christoph Adler to learn how true Microsoft Teams call quality analytics helped other organizations troubleshoot bad calls and identify and fix problems that impacted Teams calls or the use of Microsoft365 in general. See what it can do to keep your users happy and productive! In this session we will cover - Why CQD data alone is not enough to troubleshoot call problems - The importance of attributing call problems to the right call participant - What call quality analytics can do to help you quickly find, fix-, and prevent problems - Why having retrospective detailed insights matters - Real life examples of how others have used Microsoft Teams call quality monitoring to problem shoot problems with their ISP, network, device health and more.

Dubai, often portrayed as a shimmering oasis in the desert, faces its own set of challenges, including the occasional threat of flooding. Despite its reputation for opulence and modernity, the emirate is not immune to the forces of nature. In recent years, Dubai has experienced sporadic but significant floods, testing the resilience of its infrastructure and communities. Among the critical lifelines in this bustling metropolis is the Dubai International Airport, a bustling hub that connects the city to the world. This article explores the intersection of Dubai flood events and the resilience demonstrated by the Dubai International Airport in the face of such challenges.
