A
While
we
were
planning
this
keynote,
I've
also
been
playing
valheim.
It's
a
little
sandbox
survival
game
that
came
out
a
few
months
ago
along
my
adventures.
I
found
some
abandoned
buildings
in
this
really
awesome
spot
on
the
map,
and
I
told
my
friends
and
they
rushed
over
started
chopping
wood
and
carrying
ore
and
pretty
soon
we
transformed
it
into
this
thriving
little
village.
B
So
it's
not
just
the
total
size
of
our
contributor
community,
but
also
the
number
of
leads
our
sub
project
owners,
our
org
members
and
more.
Our
organizational
structure
had
to
evolve
in
2017
to
handle
and
support.
Like
a
few
thousand
now
today,
we're
close
to
just
20
000,
unique
contributors
in
the
past
year.
That's
larger
than
many
cities.
A
B
B
How
do
we
make
sure
our
values
continue
to
be
represented
in
our
actions,
then,
today,
when
this
becomes
even
more
difficult,
when
you
add
in
the
stressors
from
the
pandemic,
the
isolation,
the
flagrant
social
injustice
coming
to
a
head.
All
of
these
things
have
been
forced
multipliers
to
the
difficulty
in
maintaining
our
connections
with
each
other.
A
He
theorized
that
social
group
size
is
related
to
mammalian
brain
structure
and,
while
he's
often
quoted
with
just
a
single
number,
he
actually
postulated
several
different
numbers
that
relate
to
different
tiers
of
implicit
trust
and
in
the
outer
group
about
a
thousand
or
two
thousand
are
people
that
you'd
have
to
re-establish
context
to.
If
you
met
them
again,
you
know
like
an
old
high
school
friend
or
something
and
within
the
150
to
250,
which
is
the
the
most
quoted
number.
A
A
You
can
see
it
in
the
optimum
size
of
a
dev
team
and
the
two
pizza
rule,
the
maximum
number
of
reports
any
manager
should
have,
and
this
model
can
be
used
to
inform
how
we
understand
the
stressors
on
and
the
structure
of
any
intentionally
crafted
social
system.
You
might
notice
these
circles
roughly
match
the
sizes
of
the
kubernetes
steering
committee.
Our
tech
leads
and
our
sig
leads.
B
B
Most
reviews
are
completed
by
our
org
members
and
specifically,
those
that
have
graduated
to
become
reviewers
or
approvers.
They
are
active
and
they
have
consistently
demonstrated
many
of
the
qualities
that
are
laid
out
in
our
values.
Another
thing
is
for
this:
we
are
looking
at
the
119
release
cycle.
For
a
reason,
it
kicked
off
right
when
we
started
first
hearing
the
rumblings
of
covet.
B
Many
people
were
challenged
with
suddenly
you
know,
moving
remote
and
having
to
find
ways
to
support
themselves
and
their
family
members.
It
was
obvious
our
contributors
were
impacted,
people
were
tired.
People
are
honestly
still
tired,
but
in
response
the
119
release
team
made
the
call
to
extend
the
release
to
allow
people
more
time
to
get
the
work
done.
A
In
the
civil
rights
protests
in
the
u.s
calling
for
the
recognition
of
the
injustices
and
the
disadvantages
faced
by
black
and
african
americans
quite
literally
poured
into
the
streets
and
were
consistently
met
with
violent
response
from
government
and
while
individual
members
of
our
community
express
their
support,
the
community
leaders
also
felt
it.
It
was
crucial
to
express
our
collective
support
publicly.
A
As
they
say,
an
injustice
ignored
is
an
injustice
condoned
so
to
demonstrate
our
values
in
one
of
the
few
ways
that
an
organization
can
do
steering
and
code
of
conduct
read
to
post
the
banner
and
in
response
we
received
hateful
and
trolling
messages
from
a
small
number
of
our
community
members
and
I'm
very
disappointed
by
this.
It's
not
acceptable.
A
Now
these
events
from
the
protests
to
covet
to
the
responses
we
received
to
the
banner
created
several
opportunities
for
us.
As
leaders,
many
of
whom
are
not
black
to
learn,
there
are
two
additional
values
that
were
not
stated
four
years
ago
by
which
we
believe
our
core,
particularly
to
community
leadership,
and
that
is
transparency
and
accountability,
and
we
will
be
introducing
some
new
measures
to
increase
transparency
into
our
processes
over
the
coming
release
cycle.
B
Now,
if
you'd
like
to
learn
more
about
why
we
value
diversity,
empathy
and
humility
so
highly
why
we
felt
the
need
to
post
a
banner
saying
that
black
lives
matter
there'll
be
a
link
to
some
resources.
At
the
end
of
this
talk.
A
And
you
are
invited
to
take
responsibility
for
your
own
education
here.
Please
do
not
put
that
labor
on
minority
members
of
our
community
and
if,
after
taking
time
to
reflect
to
go
through
those
resources
and
educate
yourself,
you
still
don't
agree
with
a
vision
for
an
inclusive
and
welcoming
community
well
open
source
has
a
built-in
release
valve
you're
welcome
to
leave.
A
A
We've
opened
up
a
public
channel
in
slack
where
folks
can
reach
us
we're
making
ourselves
more
accessible,
and
that
is
in
addition
to
the
private
email
address,
conduct
kubernetes
dot
io
starting
next
quarter.
We
will
also
begin
publishing
transparency
reports
and
to
begin
with
that'll
cover
only
issues
happening
outside
of
conferences,
because
we
haven't
had
an
in-person
conference
in
a
minute,
but
we
will
ensure
that
no
one
can
be
identified
from
these
reports,
while
aiming
to
provide
the
community
with
as
much
insight
as
we
can
into
the
type
of
incidences
that
we
do.
Handle.
B
So,
in
addition
to
that,
we've
started
other
initiatives
to
try
and
tackle
some
of
these
problems.
Last
year,
the
linux
foundation
invested
forty
thousand
dollars
into
developing
and
improving
their
unconscious
bias.
Training
course.
The
steering
committee
made
this
course
a
requirement
for
our
community
group
leaders,
our
sigs,
our
working
groups,
our
user
groups
and
committee
leads,
and
while
we
recognize
that
taking
one
course
isn't
going
to
eliminate
bias
in
our
community,
it
is
one
piece
of
a
larger
puzzle.
B
But
to
be
frank,
though,
we
haven't
done
enough
and
it's
a
problem
we
need
to
fix.
This
is
a
cultural
mission
and
we
need
to
be
held
accountable.
There
is
no
steering
committee
or
cncf
policy
that
can
just
fix
this
in
one
fell
swoop.
This
is
a
problem
in
open
source
and
the
tech
industry
at
large,
but
we
can
take
action
here
in
our
community.
B
Next,
we
want
to
remove
more
of
the
barriers
to
contributing
itself
by
making
continuing
the
project
more
broadly
accessible.
In
doing
so,
we
will
open
the
doors
to
many.
We
used
to
run
our
new
contributor
workshop
alongside
events
like
kubecon,
but
there
are
thousands
of
people
that
weren't
able
to
participate
for
financial,
geopolitical,
technical
or
other
reasons.
B
So
to
do
this,
we
are
turning
our
new
contributor
workshop
into
a
free
online
course.
Lastly,
we
are
also
expanding
our
mentorship
and
internship
programs,
both
in
the
conjunction
with
the
cncf
and
independently.
We
have
worked
with
outreachy
google
summer
of
code
lfx,
and
we
want
to
work
with
others
too.
If
this
is
something
you
or
group
you
work
with
is
interested
in
please
reach
out.
We
have
a
lot
of
work
to
do.
A
Thanks
bob,
it
sounds
like
there's
so
much
awesome
stuff
going
on
across
this
entire
community.
So
folks,
if
you'd
like
to
get
involved
or
reach
out
to
any
of
us,
there's
a
bunch
of
links
up
here
and
again,
there's
a
link
at
the
bottom
of
the
slide
to
additional
resources
to
educate
yourself
thanks
so
much
for
coming
to
the
talk
today.
