Every year before the DevOps World | Jenkins World conference, Jenkins contributors gather for a contributor summit. Earlier this year, the CD Foundation became the new home for Jenkins as well as Jenkins X, Tekton and Spinnaker projects. CD Foundation serves as the new home for many of the fastest-growing projects for continuous delivery as well as a neutral home for collaboration in the CI/CD space. In that spirit of collaboration, this year’s contributor summit is being expanded to be a CDF Contributor Summit.
CDF Contributor Summit will be held on Monday August 12, 2019 in San Francisco, USA just before DevOps World | Jenkins World. It is a free event open to contributors of the open source projects. So far we will have community members from the Jenkins, Jenkins X and Tekton projects attending the summit.
The summit brings together community members to learn, meet and help shape the future of the projects. In the CDF community we value all types and sizes of contributions and love to welcome new participants who want to contribute to one or more projects.
The morning portion of the summit will consist of presentations by core committers of the projects. Presentations will highlight what each effort is about and what community members can do to help. We will cover a range of topics from technical aspects to community topics.
In the afternoon we will break into Birds of a Feather table for in-depth discussion and collaboration on different topics of interest. Bring your laptop, come prepared with questions and ideas, and be ready to meet and get coding with other contributors.
