The Opensource.com preview for September



Where does the time go? I feel like I just sat down to write the August preview for you, dear reader. Here we are in September, and I’m excited about the great things in store at Opensource.com. We have a few great series we’re working on that I’d like to invite you to be a part of, many amazing articles in the works for you to read, and I’ll share some of the fruits of our labor from this summer.

Write for us

Tell us about working on remote teams, humanitarian efforts, government issues, and more, for our “Open Source Worldwide” series.

Your experience with Linux, for our My Linux Story series, or your experience with open source tools, teams, communities, and more, for our My Open Source Story series—both will be part of our Most Open Month in October.

To submit your story idea, use our handy webform.

New stories

Topics we’ll focus on in September will be:

  • Global issues in open source—part of the “Open Source Worldwide” series
  • Technical and culture topics—from speakers of All Things Open 2016
  • Drupal-related topics—from speakers of DrupalCon Dublin 2016

Fruits of the summer

It’s been an action-packed summer.

In June, we covered topics from Southeast LinuxfestOpen Source Bridge, and Red Hat Summit, including our interviews with the Women in Open Source Award winners. And we published the series Open Source in Entertainment. In July, we covered tools and tips for sys admins and highlighted a few talks from Texas Linux Fest. And in August, we got our annual Back to School series out the door and marveled at the awesomeness of Linux during our LinuxCon NA series, including it’s 25th year anniversary. We celebrated with a poll, new column, and round up of responses from our readers.

Open organization news

On September 22, our open organization community at Opensource.com will hold its regular #OpenOrgChat on Twitter. This time, we’ll discuss “Open Organizations and Accountability.” You should definitely join us. The OpenOrg folks are already working on the next few weeks of awesome stories about the way open source values are changing organizational culture (and I’ve heard a rumor that the next community companion to The Open Organization is already in the works—so stay tuned).
