This episode is hosted by Alyssa Arvin, Senior Program Manager for Open Source at Salesforce, with guest Jim Jagielski, the newest member of Salesforce’s Open Source Program Office (OSPO). They talk about Jim’s early explorations into open source software during his time as an actual rocket scientist at NASA and his role in the formation of the Apache Software Foundation. Next, they discuss getting started in open source, specifically, how to find the right open source community for you to start contributing to. They suggest looking for a code of conduct that the project members take seriously to make sure you’re joining a community that is welcoming and takes diversity and inclusion seriously.  Who’s part of an open source community? Well, that would be more than just the contributors--it’s also the project’s end users, even companies who consume it. Those companies have a responsibility to support the projects they use, to contribute back and provide feedback to keep making it better. As an individual contributor (IC), contributing to open source can be part of your growth plan! Leveraging open source contributions to grow your skill helps you become a better employee. Jim encourages companies to adopt as frictionless a process as possible for employees contributing to open source.  Salesforce sees open source as a strategic advantage for the company. It’s a way of driving culture, of ensuring that teams collaborate and communicate and, in the process of doing that, drive innovation to benefit not only the individuals who contribute but the company as well. How important is open source to your corporate culture? That will drive how you go about building an Open Source Program Office (OSPO). It really is, at the end of the day, a cultural shift. Finally, Jim shares concrete tips for getting started with your first open source project. He suggests “lurking” in the community and checking their bug tracker for issues marked as “good for newbies.” Most projects have a handful of people who are signed up to be mentors and can help you out. And, look for something like a contributing.md file that makes it clear how you can get involved and what the future will hold for you as you get more involved. Alyssa closes with the comment that she’s excited to work with and learn from Jim, and we are too! Expect to hear more from him on future podcast episodes.

117. Open Source with Jim Jagielski

Jim Jagielski is the president of the Apache Software Foundation and works for Red Hat. He's a founding member of the Foundation and has been a developer on the HTTP server for over a decade. We had an inspiring conversation about the Apache Software Foundation, the origins of the HTTP server, how the Foundation manages projects, and the incubator program. If you manage or contribute to Open Source software, then this is a discussion you'll want to hear.
