Panelat KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2019 · on Tuesday, 2019-11-19· at 11:50· Room 7AB - San Diego Convention Center, Upper Level·
summary
Playbook items are concrete: set a governance threshold like no more than 49% from one company so control cannot be monopolized; publish a code of conduct and process for private mediation plus public moderation to defuse toxic contributors; provide public Slack + clear docs so newcomers get answers without feeling shamed; cultivate individual community champions who can onboard users; decide upfront whether the project will transition to community governance or stay company-led and align hosting, IP and release expectations accordingly.
