Go forward in time to April 2016.
Changeset Consulting is up and running
One of the great things about GNOME being a training ground for experience and talent is all the small businesses that have sprung up around it.
Sumana Harihareswara, who is an extremely deep thinker (and with a blog to prove it), has started Changeset Consulting, to help people and companies manage their open source projects.
If you know a business that is struggling with managing its open source dependencies, they might be interested in hiring Changeset to make sure bugs get escalated and fixed, and new releases come out on a dependable cadence. Changeset can also help companies with their initial open source releases, or with developer onboarding audit and revamp. Or, if you know an open source project that has been trying to get the next version out for several months, or to prepare for summer interns or a hack week, Changeset can expedite a release, bring in new volunteers, clean out the bug tracker and the wiki, and plan out a useful in-person sprint.
Sumana is a great person to work with. I hope her business does great!
Go backward in time to July 2015.
