This week we dig into what it takes to get started and involved in Open Source. You can do it in your community, in your city, or in your area. If nothing like that exists in your area, join us at one of the upcoming community conferences!

27:52 Getting Involved in Community
Steve and resumes
Be prepared to talk about what you say you know
Better to say "I don't know" than lie or fake it
A wall of text does not help
Bold important things
Demonstrate your skills
Blog
Code repository
Website
Be willing to make compromises
Don't chase a position
Get involved with a local group
Non-Profits
Church
Linux Group
Business Group
Lead with Generosity
Jab Jab Jab Right Hook
Be prepared to "un-sexy work"
