[2776.56 --> 2781.92] just in my free time anymore i would i would love to do this full time but i need some money for this |
[2781.92 --> 2789.52] so we look at the project and then um select the ones that we think are are really cool and and would |
[2789.52 --> 2794.00] be of great value to the community and then we look for a company that actually fits |
[2794.96 --> 2799.68] with this project and then we pair them up and organize the whole thing so this is one |
[2800.40 --> 2806.16] one thing we do with these open source grants then of course the rest got some off code we organized it |
[2806.16 --> 2815.68] last year and our main organizer this year again and um that actually takes a lot of my time so |
[2815.68 --> 2827.28] um yeah everything else is um no i i can totally handle everything else and um yeah and and then the |
[2828.16 --> 2837.20] uh we want to foster diversity and open source as well and for that we are um already um working |
[2837.20 --> 2844.00] together with some conferences and planning on doing this more like to for example get more women on stage |
[2844.00 --> 2851.12] or make this more make the conference more family friendly or how to reach out to a more diverse |
[2851.12 --> 2857.60] audience or something like questions that you mentioned earlier are kind of um getting more and |
[2857.60 --> 2865.04] more important in the scene and we want to help people work uh work towards that and they can actually |
[2865.04 --> 2871.92] approach us and and ask us hey i want to do this and that and i don't i don't know how to do this or |
[2871.92 --> 2877.44] um should we have a code of conard or what is a code of conard or something like this and there are |
[2878.00 --> 2886.08] already some great resources out there um like actually ashley dryden does a lot of things that i admire |
[2886.08 --> 2893.76] and she put together some awesome stuff and we have other women putting up tutorials like how to give a talk and stuff or how to |
[2893.76 --> 2904.24] uh not be anxious to enter right community where you're minority so um yeah that's that's kind of what we |
[2904.24 --> 2913.68] aim for and we're still of course it's really really young i think uh we launched the foundation end of last year |
[2913.68 --> 2925.04] um we are open to to other um yeah ideas or projects we should uh we should support or work together with so |
[2925.84 --> 2932.64] well i think the the grants part is is a unique thing and obviously um a specific approach um with |
[2932.64 --> 2939.12] diversity in tech i think it's an audacious goal anyways to foster diversity but uh in addition to that you got |
[2939.12 --> 2944.96] friends of the show rvm michael papis runs that project now wayne segwin was once on the show |
[2945.68 --> 2951.84] back back in the day um when he had i guess not really first started it but earlier in in the rvm |
[2951.84 --> 2958.56] history so you mentioned open source grants i guess the question i have around that is um is it seems |
[2958.56 --> 2963.28] like there's some sort of application process i think you mentioned soundcloud in there somewhere and |
[2963.28 --> 2968.24] you mentioned a project that they are working on it's open source can you talk about you know maybe |
[2968.24 --> 2976.64] you know travis foundations um i guess the focus on on obviously giving out grants but you know when |
[2976.64 --> 2982.80] does it happen is it is it kind of organized how do you go about it is is it just like get in touch and |
[2982.80 --> 2986.72] let us know your woes and we'll see if we can give you some money what's the how does that work |
[2986.72 --> 2999.36] yeah i would love to say here's the apply button but uh now there's actually no um application process |
[2999.36 --> 3006.64] you have to go through or or some criteria you have to met i think we discuss every project as it |
[3006.64 --> 3012.80] comes in or every project that we get aware of and i think all this might be a really cool project for |
[3012.80 --> 3019.84] the open source grants um of course in the future this will get a little bit more um detailed and |
[3019.84 --> 3025.84] there probably will be an application process but for now this is pretty much shoot us an email and and |
[3025.84 --> 3034.96] and let us know and then um probably i have a skype call with you um since yeah time is an issue so |
[3034.96 --> 3043.68] um i'm running the foundation and constantin has is the ceo and uh svein fuchs is heavily involved but |
[3043.68 --> 3051.84] we are all like super tied in so we can't have like 10 projects running right or 10 10 grants running so |
[3051.84 --> 3060.48] i think for this year we will have all in all we will have three so we had rvm coco pods is running |
[3060.48 --> 3068.40] right now and we have one lined up um that we will do the end of the year and that was the one i |
[3068.40 --> 3074.48] thought i heard you say it was soundcloud and coco pods yes so it sounds like it's a a small batch |
[3074.48 --> 3080.80] um and the application process isn't quite rigid it's more like send us an email tell us your story |
[3080.80 --> 3085.20] and we'll see how we can support that because i gotta imagine right now there's a lot of listeners |
[3085.20 --> 3092.08] we get we get way more email way more pings on our uh on our github repo that we set up for |
[3092.08 --> 3097.36] tracking issues basically which is um you know if you're a listener you can go to github.com |
[3097.36 --> 3103.28] slash the change log slash ping and submit an issue and tell us about your project there is a list uh |
[3103.28 --> 3110.80] we do have a small bootstrapped uh you know small team i guess jared right like me you and a couple other |
[3110.80 --> 3115.52] people basically me you andrew alex those are pretty much the the comment around the change |
[3115.52 --> 3121.52] law these days yep um but i gotta imagine there's gonna be a lot of people listening to this show |
[3121.52 --> 3127.44] thinking hmm travis foundation money to do my project get it should i go to get it should i go |
[3127.44 --> 3131.92] now i'm afraid now i'm afraid to open my med program after this |
[3131.92 --> 3139.52] oh boy no no awesome uh shoot us an email we're happy about every cool project |
[3140.56 --> 3147.28] worst case scenario i mean you can always start uh you know maybe an email list or maybe a regular |
[3147.28 --> 3152.00] post on the change law that talks about some of the cool projects that you you all are funding because |
[3152.00 --> 3156.64] you know honestly with the change law there's no real i don't know jerry what do you think i mean |
[3156.64 --> 3161.76] there's no real direct pattern to our content we just try to do whatever we can to promote open |
[3161.76 --> 3169.60] source whatever we can to promote um its usefulness its community you know my life is better in so |
[3169.60 --> 3174.16] many ways because of open source not just because of the software itself but because of the people |
[3174.16 --> 3179.44] and the way that my life has been touched not only by this show but the the blog and you know |
[3179.44 --> 3183.84] relationships with those that come on the show and every which way you can think of i mean the ripple |
[3183.84 --> 3189.76] effect is is massive but you know and yeah it's awesome that travis is doing this yeah seeing i mean we |
[3189.76 --> 3195.04] we focus a lot on uh open source sustainability as we see you know many people get involved with |
[3195.04 --> 3200.48] open source and then you know it's hard to keep that going as it becomes less fun and more burden |
[3200.48 --> 3206.72] over time um especially when success brings that upon you uh surprisingly even so seeing stuff like |
[3206.72 --> 3213.68] corporations doing these grants i had not heard of travis foundation previously um it'd be awesome to have |
[3213.68 --> 3217.76] those kind of stories be told on the changelog absolutely so we'd be happy to highlight it |
[3218.56 --> 3224.80] yeah i guess so back into to that jared is um you mentioned corporations giving and travis foundation |
[3224.80 --> 3231.84] so travis foundation is a 501c3 so it is an it is a non-profit right i think we're working on it yeah |
[3232.72 --> 3238.48] okay so it's in the process worst case scenario but where does travis foundation get its money to fund |
[3238.48 --> 3244.56] these grants is it through travis ci i'm sure travis has got to give a decent penny into this but then |
[3244.56 --> 3249.12] what is the efforts on the backside of this to raise more funds to make these grants possible |
[3249.76 --> 3255.04] yeah that's why we are working together with uh for example paymail or soundcloud so they actually |
[3255.04 --> 3261.68] give the money to fund the grants okay we organize this yes and travis i obviously um |
[3261.68 --> 3268.08] is giving a lot of money and and yeah paying me to do this all uh to organize this oh i'll tell you |
[3268.08 --> 3272.64] it right here right now on the show and the listeners be ready for it but we want to do more |
[3272.64 --> 3278.72] to help facilitate whatever we can around this whether it's a post on the changelog obviously |
[3278.72 --> 3283.60] this show here helps highlight it quite a bit as well but we want to do whatever we can to either |
[3283.60 --> 3288.56] help you establish relationships with corporate partners or promote any new new grants that are |
[3288.56 --> 3293.60] being funded like i had no idea that rvm was getting funded through travis foundation and that's |
[3293.60 --> 3300.80] that's awesome like michael does a we actually the last not the last show 121 but one episode 120 we |
[3300.80 --> 3306.72] had postmodern on we got to talk a little bit of shop around changing ruby and uh unix paradigms of |
[3306.72 --> 3313.20] is it ch ruby is it ch root or is it change root so all sorts of fun stuff around that but you know we're |
[3313.20 --> 3319.36] fans of of those softwares and it's it's neat to see them get funded and continue to live on too so |
[3319.36 --> 3327.68] cool thank you uh no i guess no real direct questions on that one but we are getting close |
[3327.68 --> 3331.76] to our our time jared is there anything else around travis that we can talk about before we |
[3332.40 --> 3338.08] tail off the call i don't think so i'm just excited to see more grants like this going to open source i |
[3338.08 --> 3343.12] think it's it's going to be awesome so i'm i'm excited that they're kind of heading it up and it sounds |
[3343.12 --> 3350.32] like um you know other corporations could can reach out to uh well how do they how do other |
[3350.32 --> 3356.48] corporations get involved just hit the contact form on foundation.travisci.org or what's the call |
[3356.48 --> 3363.68] to action there yes yes um just go to the website yes and then there is contact button then everything |
[3363.68 --> 3368.72] will work out magically everything will work out magically so floor you the beginning of a wonderful |
[3368.72 --> 3376.08] story let me ask you you work at 89s right yes i do sorry there's a little bit of latency so i keep |
[3376.08 --> 3382.16] stepping over jared and and annika so i'm sorry about that guys but um no worries you floor you |
[3382.16 --> 3386.56] work at 89s and we've been talking quite a bit about rails grow summer code and you're heavily involved |
[3386.56 --> 3391.84] there but you're not involved in travis foundation is that right that's that's all right yeah that's |
[3392.88 --> 3396.56] you know just you know since we haven't heard you for a bit what is your perspective on |
[3396.56 --> 3402.96] travis foundation like what excites you um someone that's two years into programming someone that's |
[3402.96 --> 3410.08] speaking and organizing and and leading and teaching software development what are your thoughts on |
[3410.08 --> 3416.40] you know what travis foundation is doing for open source okay so um i guess first off working for |
[3416.40 --> 3421.52] any nines actually enables me to work on rails grow summer of code one day a week so that's pretty cool |
[3421.52 --> 3428.96] that's awesome yes and then second yeah i actually worked with the travis foundation and annika pretty |
