OSCON Blogs

I spent the last week in Portland at O'Reily's OSCON conference. As usual I was blogging the conference for O'Reilly and I wanted to share those blogs posts with you. This conference rocked the house and I think there are a couple of really worthy blog entries covering some of these talks:

• Google's Summer of Code -- a boatload of statistics presented about Google's open source grant program
• How Open Source Projects Survive Poisonous People (And You Can Too) -- a talk about what to do about trouble makers in your community.
• What Happens when the Money Comes? -- a panel discussing various issues surrounding the recent acquisitions of open source projects.
• The Art of Community -- 4 lightning talks covering different viewpoints on open source communities.
• Open Data, communities and meritocracy -- My thoughts on this years open source conference.
