Most people at EclipseCon are experts in open source contribution and adding code to an eclipse project is a no-brainer for them. When having a look at newcomers like young man and woman that just finished school or university the situation is totally different: While that people are badly needed to move our projects to the future and strengthen the diversity of the maintainers the hurdles for a first contribution are sadly quite high.
Let’s have a look at open source workflows and how we can make contribution more welcome and easy. Maybe some low hanging fruits can already help to welcome newcomers to our projects and ecosystem.
Objective of the presentation:
The session should be used to discuss how we can make contribution more easy and welcome.
