Recognizing Contributors
The project looks to recognize and thank contributors for their contributions as one of the ways we can help them continue to contribute to the project.
This document captures some of the processes we have in place to do that.
Some of the benefits we hope to achieve through these programs include:
- Ensuring people know that the project appreciates their work
- Encouraging people to repeat/grow their contributions
- Helping people demonstrate to their managers the value of the contributions they are making, which in terms helps their manager support their employer investing in the project (unfortunately this is something that matters)
- Highlighting the new features in Node.js and showing that they are being added by individuals like those mentioned. This should encourage other people to get involved and make similar contributions.
- Highlighting those leading efforts/initiatives and they are being done by individuals or teams like those mentioned. This should encourage other people to get involved and make similar contributions
Sponsorship link on nodejs/node README.md
Collaborators may add a single link beside their name on the nodejs/node
README.md file in the section titled Collaborators
named Support me. This link may be:
- a direct link to one of the sponsorship platforms listed below,
- a page that has text explaining how to support the collaborator including zero or more links to the sponsorship platforms listed below. The page should not have any outgoing links other than to the sponsorship platforms. We expect and trust collaborators to ensure that the text is professional and respectful.
The sponsorship platforms to which links can be made currently includes (in alphabetical order):
Amplification of posts announcing talks by collaborators
When a collaborator is speaking at a public event they may request amplification by the Node.js social media accounts. They can request that a post highlighting that they are speaking at the event be amplified by the Node.js accounts by making a request in the #nodejs-social channel in the OpenJS Foundation slack. We trust that collaborators will only request amplification when they believe the event is relevant to the Node.js community and the content of the post is in line with the norms of the project.
Bi-monthly contributor spotlight
The contributor spotlight program showcases individual(s) or teams who have made signification contributions to the project. Anybody who is not a member of the Technical Steering Committee (TSC) and has made a notable contribution to the project can be nominated. They DO NOT need to be a collaborator, team member etc.
The work of the team or individual(s) will be showcased on the Node.js social channels and, if warranted, through a blog post created by the OpenJS marketing staff along with the team or individual(s) which will be published on openjsf.org.
Nominations can be made through this web form: Contributor Spotlight nomination
Nominations will be reviewed/approved by the Technical Steering Committee (TSC) on a regular basis as scheduled by the TSC chair. The TSC will also recommend the order in which approved nominations are processed by the OpenJS marketing staff.
Before any work proceeds on an approved nomination the individual(s) or team will be contacted to confirm they want to participate. Social content and or spotlight blog post will only be published after the team or individual(s) have confirmed they are happy with the content.
