Collaboration Summit 2014

Creating a new open source project and building a community of developers and adopters is a major effort that requires planning and proper execution. In this talk, Ibrahim Haddad will discuss the various steps an originating idea goes through from inception into announcing a new open source project, from a corporate perspective (ie. a company is creating the project, not an individual). The talk also covers the various Legal, Technical, and Business reviews existing source code goes through being being open source towards either a new or an existing open source project.

Audience cover developers, project managers, legal staff.

As companies move more towards open sourcing proprietary technologies and creating new open source projects, this talk will provide a detailed description of the process to go through from A to Z.
