“Let’s stop winging it, and instead create a more intentional supply chain, with intentional, thriving open source maintainers” @dff paraphrasing @luis_in_brief bit.ly/3oNTpOC #upstream2023

“If we want healthier, more secure open source software, we can’t think of it as a zero-sum equation anymore. We need to think about how everyone can win, both the creators and users of open source.” bit.ly/43roYwD #upstream2023

“There’s a reason why corporations employ people and pay them. Because that’s the best way to get work done. Getting paid should be considered normal, not out of the ordinary.” @dff quoting maintainer @GaryGregory bit.ly/3OWNDVH #upstream2023

“Lauren shared some highlights of the multi-year effort we’ve made at Tidelift to pay maintainers to validate they are following common software security practices. Paid maintainers achieved a better than 2x OSSF Scorecard score!” 🎉 bit.ly/3qyuorq #upstream2023

A few minutes ago, @juliaferraioli stated this very eloquently: Software is not just bits. It’s a complex, socio-technical system, and you can’t simply abstract the people out of it. bit.ly/3JmSKuP #upstream2023

The dream at @tidelift has always been to make open source work better—for everyone. So the goal of @UpstreamOSS is to get to know each other, both those who create open source, and those who use it. bit.ly/42sXlCn #upstream2023
