aditsu bear codex dotplus prologic semiosis sivoais tumdedum westmaas: Has anyone read "Producing Open Source Software: How to Run a Successful Free Software Project" by Karl Fogel ( http://producingoss.com )? I'm about half way through and it's really good. |

Yes, it's great stuff mostly. In the same vein, Peter Hintjens on building (OSS) communities; he's the guy behind 0mq and very big on the community side of OSS dev. |

Yes, he's great. Oh no! He has passed away: Pieter Hintjens on Twitter: "I'm choosing euthanasia etd 1pm. I have no last words." - https://twitter.com/hintjens/status/783254242052206592 |

I'm pretty sure that this is the show with him that I listened to previously: https://mostlyerlang.com/2014/04/22/034-community-with-pieter-hinjens/ |

from the RR transcript, on pull requests: "merge as fast as possible. You merge to master without doing code reviews and without, as long as it passed tests and as long as it doesn’t look actually insane, you merge it. And by merging it you forced it into the front. Everybody will look at it. It will be tested on many systems and it will fail. People will be engaged to come and fix it and improve it." |

dotplus: Producing OSS got on my radar from listening to the author at https://changelog.com/rfc/1 which I highly recommend (part 2 as well). He mentioned that he keeps updating the book, including a major rewrite a year ago or so. |
