Interviews re. how conflict is resolved in this open source community #92

Open earino opened 7 years ago

earino commented 7 years ago

I am in the final semester of a MA program in Negotiation, Conflict Resolution and Peacebuilding. I am hoping to write and publish a paper as part of my "dispute systems design" course on how open source organizations like rOpensci handle internal disagreements and disagreements with contributors. These can range from:

or deeper issues like:

I would love the opportunity to talk to folks for short blocks, 5-10 minutes informally and get an understanding for how they see this sort of thing handled both inside the rOpensci community, and other tech and scientific communities they are members of.

I would share the paper and the collected data with everyone upon completion. Is this an appropriate use of time at this event?

Would be super happy to chat about this, though most of my experience is related to the editorial process.

These can range from:

  • the architecture of some code
  • quality of code

or deeper issues like:

  • establishing a code of conduct
  • vision for the whole organization

@earino - throw back Thursdays :) Are you able to share the results of your survey? I'm looking to include a section surrounding Issue and PR conflicts/resolutions in a community I am building and found this thread in my research.

I found this to be of use as well: https://github.com/jonschlinkert/maintainers-guide-to-staying-positive
