Open Source, InnerSource - Similarities, Differences, Connections
summary
Claims that matter: Comcast runs both open source and InnerSource and catalogs 59 projects; it open sources RDK and a CDN to the Apache Foundation and standardizes internal work on GitHub Enterprise. Measured outcomes include percent external contributions into internal repos, developer productivity and eNPS; trusted committers gate upstream changes; an internal InnerSource license exists across legal entities and makes staging to public open source harder. Examples of reuse, reduced duplication and faster releases are documented.
