Description
Community is an inseparable thing in the culture and development of free/open source software (FOSS). This includes the FOSS community in graphic design. As a member of several FOSS graphic design communities in Indonesia for around 10 years, I have generally observed the dynamics of these communities. I saw similarities in their growth patterns, uniqueness, "peak times", and the current state of these communities.
In general, almost all FOSS graphic design communities in Indonesia are maintaining their existence. What makes the difference is the contribution of the community, active members, and the potential of the community to reach its peak again. In this session, I will present the profile of each community that I follow (or observe), the dynamics of these communities from my perspective, and what lessons can be learned in building or reactivating similar open source communities
