A massive thanks to Francesca Vera of the #StanfordDataScience #CenterForOpenAndReproducibleScience and Ellianna Abrahams of #StanfordDoerrSchoolOfSustainability for this excellent talk on OpenSource@Stanford's Maintainers and Contributors Roundtable.
This #CommunityOfPractice provides a space for active #OpenSource #Maintainers and #Contributors to collectively learn from each other and to develop their competencies.
There's so much potential to explore in relation to #OpenSource collaboration between academia and industry.
