The Kubernetes Annual Report [1] shows that there are very few contributors, especially senior and experienced folks, who are paid to work on k8s. The report also shows that PR reviews were down -24% across the k8s repo. The existing contributors are burnt out and have started to move away from the project. This is affecting the sustainability, quality and velocity of the project, with major regression-related backports in recent releases. It clearly shows that most companies profit from k8s but don’t contribute back. Continuing this model is a huge risk to the whole CNCF ecosystem. We will show strategies on how employers can practice “Business Aligned Open Source”. We will cover how to: - Add value to internal products, improve speed to market and innovation - Build expertise and better support customers - Have employees dedicate a certain percentage to upstream - Incentivize career growth - Surface areas of risk that require investment - Establish company’s influence and credibility in the community [1] https://www.cncf.io/reports/kubernetes-annual-report-2021/

The presentation discusses the importance of governance in open source projects and provides guidance on how to establish clear expectations, define project scope and values, and define roles and responsibilities for contributors.
- Governance is about alignment and collaboration within a community.
- Setting clear expectations helps facilitate alignment.
- Defining project scope and values is important to avoid misunderstandings.
- Defining roles and responsibilities for contributors is crucial for effective governance.
- The CNCF provides resources and guidance for projects to establish governance, but it is up to individual projects to build their own communities and adopters.
- The CNCF prefers the use of Apache2 for code and Creative Commons for documentation, but exceptions can be made with approval from the governing board.

The presentation discusses the process of creating and maintaining the Kubernetes website using Hugo and Netlify.
- The Kubernetes website is generated using Hugo, which converts markdown files into HTML pages.
- Shortcodes are used to dynamically generate content based on data in the config.toml file.
- The website uses the Doxy theme, which is a submodule maintained separately from the main repository.
- Netlify is used to host the website and has a similar configuration file structure to Hugo.
- Netlify allows for easy deployment and testing of changes to the website.
- The use of Hugo, shortcodes, and Netlify allows for efficient and dynamic management of the Kubernetes website.
