SUMMARY:Welcoming Diversity and Disagreement in Your Open Source Project
DESCRIPTION:benny Vasquez (AlmaLinux OS Foundation)\n\nHPC is built on ope
 n source, and often new technologies are shared under open source licenses
 , but building and managing a community around an open source project isn'
 t easy. Often, the skills that are needed for engaging with users of a pro
 ject are completely different from the skills that were needed to create t
 he project in the first place. \n\nWhile study after study proves the impo
 rtance of having a diversity of participation and thought for success, ope
 ning your project up to disagreement and discussion can be challenging and
  intimidating. Intentionally opening the door to disagreement can feel lik
 e a bad idea. \n\nThis talk will help you understand if diversity is right
  for your project, and then help you set your project up to let diversity 
 in with a minimum of trolls and bikeshedding.\n\nTag: Broader Engagement\n
