Minutes

• Reviewing InnerSource Commons State Of InnerSource Survey 2021
  • Went through @claredillon's presentation summarizing the survey.
  • Interesting to see the changing reasons behind why invest in InnerSource, breaking down silos and improving happiness at work. Maturing to open source falling lower down the scale.
  • Biggest barrier is middle management buy-in and lack of time.
  • Only a minority at 13% get all the time they need to contribute to InnerSource.
  • Discussion about advertising or lack thereof for InnerSource projects, maybe an opportunity to add to Maturity Matrix.
  • InnerSource Commons participation is shifting from grass roots to top down as a strategic importance.
  • Recognition still very much lacking.
  • Team readiness - ready to review changes as they come, but when contribution changes requires difficult conversations, less team readiness on that.
  • Project readiness - documentation still a top level concern.
