Opening Up The Current Open Source Blueprint
summary
Makes three concrete claims and shows simple fixes: a cited stat of less than 2% women contributors and an anecdotal count of fifteen people of color with four women of color; a Pew figure of 1 in 5 adults smartphone dependent; practical actions using Git/GitHub, command line and a Storify of scholarships plus a compiled list of paid fellowships. Outcomes: non‑code contributions land as merges, the Storify spreads resources, and accessibility gaps (devices, broadband, discovery of nontechnical paths) remain clear and addressable.
