Understanding the InnerSource Checklist

Abstract: Come learn more about an InnerSource checklist developed at PayPal. Hear more success stories with InnerSource and how we codified our practices to help more teams at PayPal and beyond.

Silona Bonewald will share a checklist that guides you through various steps needed to produce software using the InnerSource approach, whether it’s company-wide or just for one team. She will also explore how the checklist is evolving now at IEEE and how they are adding to it via templates and automation.
