Interview with Jono Bacon
summary
Director of community at GitHub says the aim is to ship concrete community tools and guides so the average repo maintainer can build an inclusive project without hiring an expert, including prescriptive advice on six-monthly releases and rolling releases, baked-in patterns from behavioral economics to reduce predictable friction, and starter codes of conduct. Plans include training events (Community Leadership Summit May 14–15 in Austin) and product changes to surface these patterns to new global users.
