AGENDA TOPIC 1 - Contributor Research - Rina Jensen
A formative research study in two parts, exploring
what motivates technical contributors to participate in open source projects.
based on the driving motivations, what are the experiences of contributing in open source and how can it be improved.
We will cover motivations, connections between those motivations (personas) and the experience journey research in short, but will provide links and documentation for follow up.
Types
the independents
the leaders
the fixers
the citizens
QUESTIONS:
Any quick (and magic) things we should apply starting tomorrow?
yes, check on how we engage/ how we reconnect
Any AHA moments ? Something unexpected that pop up- ed in the research?
a lot of aha moments, I thought that open source would be a pillar on why people join and I found that there is a big diversity on motivations - Rina
there is a progression on how the contributors evolve, they may start as a certain type and they can change in the future - Brian
Are the people in the personas real mozillians/people who answered?
they are not we wanted to keep people’s ids secret
Are there lessons from other projects for integrating beginner technical contributors?
there are some high level recommendations, one of the key things (easy step too) is stating the benefits that people will get once joining
What is the value of non-technical contributors to open source or free software projects in general?
