AI governance for open-source contributors
Open-source contributors can pick one Foundation project — Beacon, Umbrella or Vendor RFI — read its contribution guide, and join Thursday's community meeting at 15:00–16:00 Pacific. Each guide lives on the project's main branch on GitHub. All Foundation code is Apache-2.0, so contributions stay open.
