This workshop will introduce a basic framework for thinking about governance and will dive into some of the most common "governance bugs" open source projects face, including cultivating leaders from the community, collective technical decision-making, and formalizing and/or transitioning a governance structure. + +Workshop registration is available in the private Maintainer Community.
