Helping open source program offices get started

The purpose of this repo is to enable new OSPOs to be successful on GitHub. On behalf of the GitHub OSPO we are sharing our policies, tools, and best practices to guide you through the first 6-12 months of your organization's open source journey. There are also other OSPO guides and resources available through TODO & OSPO Alliance as well as opensource.guide. This repo will focus on GitHub related tools and content.

Adopting and adapting

Feel free to use, modify, and adopt these policies, procedures, and guides. They are open source! 🎉 If you are adopting them, run through and do a quick search for XXX. We have used that as a placeholder value where our policies point to internal only documentation. Also search for the @ so that you can update any email addresses with the proper ones for your company.
