[greater good pledge] request for participation #54

Closed vsoch closed 4 years ago

vsoch commented 5 years ago

hey nipy family!

I'm creating a new initiative, The Greater Good that aims to highlight projects with no underlying incentives or ulterior motives - those that are "for the greater good." The nipy family of tools (I believe) fit strongly within the criteria, and I'm hoping that the community would like to participate. Participation simply means adding the community name to the pledge, and then (optionally) adding a badge to any associated project repos.

Details are provided at the page, and any maintainers / users here are welcome to also join the organization The Good Labs if open source transparency is important to them. It's still early (I'm going to be creating media and other community interactions) and right now I'm getting in touch with projects that I've worked with.

Just added some FAQ and please see active discussion here https://github.com/pydicom/pydicom/issues/842#issuecomment-488366124 about making it more about disclosure (less about profits). Feel free to jump in!

Hello @vsoch! I am +1 for NIPY signing this pledge. Looks like we are squarely within the definition.

vsoch commented 5 years ago

Awesome! I’d suggest waiting until there is an official release out so that you can link with a particular version that you’ve signed. I can ping here again when that’s done :-)

effigies commented 4 years ago

I'm also +1, fwiw.

satra commented 4 years ago

+1 - sorry this fell of the radar.

vsoch commented 4 years ago

Awesome! I'll open a PR with the badge.
