Community Track Overview
The Community track is hosted and made possible by the team at Intel.
The difference between a successful open source project and/or consumption/contribution and a not-so-successful experience is often community. We’ve seen it time-and-time again.
We feel community and community focused content are so important we’re dedicating a stand-alone event to it this year – the Community Leadership Summit (CLS) on Monday, October 31.
And good news…
We’ll also feature an entire track dedicated to the topic on Tuesday (November 1) and Wednesday (November 2) as well. Experts and thought leaders from all over the U.S. and the world will be speaking and participating.
