Presented at HOPE 2020 Virtual Rescheduled, July 30, 2020, 1 p.m. (60 minutes).

Open source software sounds great to use, and hopefully even better to contribute to! This session will discuss the various ways to get involved with open source software, with notable examples taken from within the Apache Software Foundation. In past sessions, incredibly ambitious people have walked away having made a concrete (code) contribution. https://wiki.hope.net/index.php?title=Start\_Contributing\_to\_Open\_Source\_Workshop
