While the Kubernetes project is only five years old, we’re already going into our
|
||
9th Contributor Summit this November in San Diego before KubeCon + CloudNativeCon.
|
||
The rapid increase is thanks to adding European and Asian Contributor Summits to
|
||
the North American events we’ve done previously. We will continue to run Contributor
|
||
Summits across the globe, as it is important that our contributor base grows in
|
||
all forms of diversity.
|
||
|
||
Kubernetes has a large distributed remote contributing team, from [individuals and
|
||
organizations] all over the world. The Contributor Summits give the community three
|
||
chances a year to get together, work on community topics, and have hallway track
|
||
time. The upcoming San Diego summit is expected to bring over 450 attendees, and
|
||
will contain multiple tracks with something for everyone. The focus will be around
|
||
contributor growth and sustainability. We're going to stop here with capacity for
|
||
future summits; we want this event to offer value to individuals and the project.
|
||
We've heard from past summit attendee feedback that getting work done, learning,
|
||
and meeting folks face to face is a priority. By capping attendance and offering
|
||
the contributor gatherings in more locations, it will help us achieve those goals.
|
||
|
||
This summit is unique as we’ve taken big moves on sustaining ourselves, the
|
||
contributor experience events team. Taking a page from the release team’s playbook,
|
||
we have added additional core team and shadow roles making it a natural mentoring
|
||
(watching+doing) relationship. The shadows are expected to fill another role at
|
||
one of the three events in 2020, and core team members to take the lead.
|
||
In preparation for this team, we’ve open sourced our [rolebooks, guidelines,
|
||
best practices] and opened up our [meetings] and [project board]. Our team makes up
|
||
many parts of the Kubernetes project and takes care of making sure all voices
|
||
are represented.
|
||
|
||
Are you at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon but can’t make it to the summit? Check out
|
||
the [SIG Intro and Deep Dive sessions] during KubeCon + CloudNativeCon to
|
||
participate in Q&A and hear what’s up with each Special interest Group (SIG).
|
||
We’ll also record all of Contributor Summit’s presentation sessions, take notes
|
||
in discussions, and share it back with you, after the event is complete.
|
||
|
||
We hope to see you all at Kubernetes Contributor Summit San Diego, make sure you
|
||
head over and [register right now]! This event will sell out - here’s your warning.
