CHAOSS Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) Open Source Badging Initiative
summary
CHAOSS runs a DEI event badging initiative that uses existing CHAOSS metrics to evaluate events via a GitHub-based workflow: applicants open an issue, the badging-bot assigns reviewers, reviewers complete a checklist and a score is calculated against an 80% threshold with two human reviewers. Metrics include code of conduct, diversity access tickets, family friendliness, attendee/speaker/volunteer demographics, and new items like inclusive experience and time-zone inclusion; 35 events badged since Sept 2020 and Open Source Summit earned gold DEI badge.
