Title: TFW when your country is funding Open Source development
Duration: 45 (includes Q&A)
Q&A Session: 15
Language: en
Type: Talk

Abstract: During 2018 I've been a contractor for the Italian Digital Transformation Team working on docs.italia.it (Docs Italia), a platform to collect and share the Public Administration documentation. Docs Italia is an Open Source platform based on the Read The Docs code.

On top of the usual technical challenges working in the open posed its own set of issues:
- finding out how to be a good open source citizen while trying to deliver value
- working productively with an Open Source community
- managing an Open Source project fork

In this talk I'll share what we did and how it did go.
