[commops] Hot topic: Governance models and your project's health

[Justin W. Flory]

Hey CommOpsers!

Nothing formal this time – I saw this article on Opensource.com about
new research on open source governance models and wanted to share it.


https://opensource.com/open-organization/18/4/new-governance-model-research

The study compared the following four criteria against the governance
models in each project:

  1. Basic activity metrics
  2. Collaboration metrics
  3. Documentation
  4. Labels (i.e. effective triage)

The study does not assert a conclusion, but it comparing against a
previous version of the same study done in 2016. It's interesting to
note the shift in what some of the largest projects out there are doing.

I thought some of you all might dig this too. :-)
