Apache Con 2015

feather

I attended the Apache Con Keynote today and was very pleased to learn a bit more of the history of Apache. This group is much more than just a face for open source software. The Apache Way could be a very powerful driving factor for building a successful software organization. Here are a few quick notes from Brian Behlendorf's keynotes.

Keynote

Apache is more than a collection of open source software but a way of moving software from private enterprise to the open source space. It's a culture and process for a dev culture.

"This is what separates Apache from the enterprise. Driving the roadmap vs building solid technical communities." - Brian Behlendorf

"The world needs more non-profit membership focused software development organizations" - Brian Behlendorf

A few key drivers:

  • humility
  • empathy for end-users
  • celebration of newbies
  • transparency ((or reals)
  • carros, not sticks
  • independence / teamwork
  • do-ocracy not laziness

Conference

  • Check out the rest of the conference, lots of great speakers here.
