Professional Open Source by Tom H Anderson

Talk: Professional Open Source

Because anyone can contribute to open source it sounds like the wild west. But each project of significance is managed by a skilled developer in git on Github. Learn how to make your and your company's Github profiles read professionally and convey what you know and not just what you've seen. Using real-world examples, I'll show profiles that convey professionalism and profiles which tell a different story.
