📣 MSCP - mcpp Contributor Cultivation Program

Core Problems and Goals

From the perspective of energy conservation, if an open source project creates value > maintenance cost resulting in positive value, then it has the foundation for sustainable development

  • Problem: Some open source projects that have proven (or preliminarily proven) valuable still gradually disappear for various reasons
  • Goal: Explore how individuals/organizations/communities can sustainably develop/operate an open source project and create social value

Value Orientation

  • Vision: Enable valuable open source projects to continuously develop and create social value
  • Mission: Explore how to sustainably develop/operate an open source project, providing project maintainers with replicable/referenceable engineering, governance, funding and community operation methodologies and toolkits
  • Values: Open Source Co-creation, Sincere Passion, Openness and Inclusion

Current Problems in Open Source

  • Project maintainer survival and sense of achievement issues
  • Documentation and usability: Documentation lags or is incomplete, high entry barrier
  • Promotion and influence: How to establish connections with target users, gain attention and feedback to form a virtuous cycle
  • Contributor cultivation: High barrier for newcomers, unclear contribution paths, scattered communication, lack of maintainer cultivation mechanisms
  • Community and ecosystem: How to establish communities and ecosystems around projects, and related operation and governance issues
  • Difficulty in establishing commercialization paths for open source projects, making it hard to support sustainable project development
