02 Convergence of communities
summary
Network analysis of GitHub, Slack and mailing lists maps contributors across Kubernetes, OpenShift/OKD and CNCF projects and reveals who actually connects projects, not just who commits code. The tooling identifies central hubs, exposes that Red Hat dominates OKD contributions but 80 companies also contribute, surfaces unexpected links like Jaeger and m3db tied into the operator framework, and finds active helpers previously unknown. The approach works for finding maintainers, speakers and nurture targets and is moving toward predictive analysis.
