Description
Agile project management has been around since the early 2000s and has been adopted by organizations to improve product quality and develop more customer-centric applications. Opensource applications like GNOME projects can and are benefiting from this development life-cycle. In this workshop, I will discuss unique aspects of managing open source projects, including community-driven development, distributed collaboration, and volunteer contributors. I will also present a case study on GJS and its project management practices. Furthermore, I will analyze the challenges faced by the project, the solutions implemented and the outcomes achieved.
Finally, I will facilitate a group discussion on the lessons learned from the case study and how they can be applied to other projects within the GNOME ecosystem.
