Build a community of data scientists to collaborate on the CHAOSS Data Science Initiative
We will collaborate with data scientists and researchers to shape how we understand open source community health and make it easier for people to use CHAOSS tools, metrics, and metrics models to draw meaningful insights that they can use to improve open source project health using data science-based approaches.
Anyone interested in data science and data analysis can join. You don't need to be an expert or know how to perform advanced techniques, like machine learning or artificial intelligence. We welcome data scientists, data analysts, researchers and others with an interest in data.
This is a working group within the CHAOSS project to support our Data Science Initiative. If you work for a company who is interested in sponsoring some of our work, we have a sponsorship prospectus with more details.
Want to join the working group? Here is a simple step by step guide on how to join:
- Getting started as a new/first time contributor
- Agenda/Meeting-Minutes
- Join us in the #wg-data-science channel within the CHAOSS Slack Workspace.
- Learn on the Participate page on the website
We follow the CHAOSS Code of Conduct
The CHAOSS Data Science Working Group develops a set of Practitioner Guides to help individuals understand how to interpret data about an open source project, enabling them to develop insights that can improve the project's health. They are designed for Open Source Program Offices (OSPOS), project leads, community managers, maintainers, and anyone who wants to understand project health better and take action on what they learn from their metrics.
If you are interested in contributing to the practitioner guides, you can find more details in the practitioner-guides folder here in the repo.
We are also working on several projects using CHAOSS metrics and tools to help answer people's questions about open source projects and their unique dynamics. You can find details about these projects in the WG's GitHub Issues.
See the CONTRIBUTING.md for more info.
