118: Open Source Commons with Cori O'Brien Part 2

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This is the second half of our conversation with Cori O' Brien, senior manager of Open Source Commons at Salesforce.org. Picking up where we left off, we’re going to talk about what their process was like to move to virtual during the pandemic and how they're translating that into a Zoom experience. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cori also talks about the many benefits of moving to virtual space, including how they went global and how it helped diversify the community. Not just a bunch of developers in a room building something cool, it takes a team to create a framework for sustainability and spark a new idea that will help you bring your ideas forward. </span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Show Highlights:</strong></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">The benefits of moving to virtual</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">What the transition looks like from virtual to in-person</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Moving from virtual sprint to hybrid (in-person + virtuals)</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Examples of Sprint projects for people to join</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">About the animal shelter starter pack</span></li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>Links:</strong></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href= "https://twitter.com/CoriOPaluck"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Cori on Twitter</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/in/coriobrienpaluck/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Cori on Linkedin</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href= "https://github.com/coriobriensfdo"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Cori on Github</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href= "
