Session
It is a common strategy to start an open source solution without external contribution and governance. But at one point, your ecosystem will need an open governance in order to invest in the project and contribute. Then, where do you start?
Strategic governance, technical governance, road-map, legal compliance, intellectual property and business model are hot topics to address. In this presentation, we will see together how to track the work to be done, and start the opening process to have a clear separation between the company and the open source project.
