We don’t need no stinking…
Badges At the intersection of badging and recognition lie some
scalable solutions for supporting and growing your open source project(s)
Larissa Shapiro @larissashapiro
I’m…
…working on “contributor development” within community building full time these days.
…a Mozillian
whose job is to grow contributors and help them connect to meaningful work inside our project,
and, I’m really into building a culture where we recognize each other and grow together. So!
Late afternoon wakeup!
Spectrogram time!
5 minutes. 5 questions: 1. I am having a great time at Open Source Bridge! 2. “I find t-shirts highly motivating” 3. I don’t like to be acknowledged in public 4. I like to earn badges and I think they help people see what I know how to do 5. My open source projects recognize our contributors effectively
Badges Are…
a defined set of skills and activities to be completed
a way to demonstrate publicly what one has learned
a way to organize and count contributions and contributors
and, I hypothesize, *not* a primary recognition form
Recognition is…
how we let each other know that we see the good work people are doing
how we learn more about each other
a culture to be built and nurtured…
How do you like to be recognized? How does your project recognize?
5 minute brainstorm with your neighbor
Learnings
shockingly, not everyone feels good about the same things.
learning and documenting how people want to be recognized, at scale, is hard
check in with people! document!
*be creative!*
Crafty Recognition
now with more fibonacci sequenced knitting projects
We had a contest for someone to guess when we’d hit our millionth bugzilla bug, and when we did, one of our DBAs knitted this scarf for the winner. It’s knitted in a fibonacci sequence
Badges and Recognition: a Comparison/Review
Badges do recognize specific skils and activities
within a context
Recognition takes a persons individual talents and skills into account
Badges identify specific rubric based
skillsets in a community and can allow for counting,
community identification, and more
