The Linux Foundation Member Summit 2021

“We successfully brought together an open-source community during these challenging times, and all of it online. This talk is all about how we did it.” The CD Foundation (CDF) is an open-source community improving the world's ability to deliver software with security and speed. The goal of the foundation is to help you figure out your best DevOps path to being a high-performing team and how to use open source to get there. BUT how exactly are we able to execute this mission in 2020? Especially, during the Covid-19 pandemic when face-to-face interactions were prohibited? Join this session to learn more about how I, Jacqueline Salinas, Director of Ecosystem & Community Development, and the CDF community worked to figure out how to transition our community and outreach activities from in-person to virtual. This session will cover various case studies from the CDF community and practical approaches that were implemented to ensure engagement and growth from the comfort and safety of all of our homes. Walk away with knowledge that is transferable to any community so that you can ensure you are creating safe, inclusive, and diverse communities.
