Topic introduction:

Open Source Culture and the Apache Way

In the open source world, the culture that Apache promotes is unique:

Community over Code

"If something hasn't been discussed on the mailing list, it hasn't happened"

Meritocracy...

And all of these cultures are the everyday meaning of every developer in every Apache project: instructing them what to do, how to do it, and when to do it, as well as foreshadowing and explaining what everyone will do and say.

As we all know, Apache was born in the rapid development of the World Wide Web, and the culture formed in the cyberspace is very different from the real culture, which will inevitably bring confusion, confusion, and even conflict to people who are different from such a culture. Especially the oriental culture, which developed late and has a deep history, is also called Asian culture.

Cowardice and Resistance to Re-enchantment

The conflict of cultures, sometimes, will be an either-or option. For example, the famous sociologist Max Weber called it the "switch worker" model, but modern scientists are more willing to put people's choice of culture, As a toolbox (culture as toolbox), choose according to your needs.

Then, if you have the following related cultural content (not limited to) you want to share and express, please submit an issue:

• Open source culture summary and practice
• Apache Way Practice and Interpretation
• Compromise, conflict, mediation between real culture and open source culture
• How to attract developers from Asian cultural backgrounds to open source
• How to Spread and Evangelize Open Source Culture or The Apache Way
• What Open Source Culture or The Apache Way Means for Open Source Projects
• How to Promote and Protect Open Source Culture and the Apache Way
