ODH update for community mtgs & email lists
by Landon LaSmith
Hello Open Data Hub folks,
We’d like to announce a change to the Open Data Hub Community meetings. Red
Hat (the sponsor of the Open Data Hub project) recently surveyed the
various communities of innovation around AI/ML and agreed that engaging
with upstream communities directly should be our primary focus for
community building and participation.
Due to this, we’ve decided to reduce our focus on community building
through meetings and community outreach via Open Data Hub.
*What IS changing, planned for April 15, 2024:*
- The Open Data Hub community meetings and mailing lists will sunset in
their entirety. The community ODH Slack <http://odh-io.slack.com/>will
remain, we’re also active on Kubeflow slack
<https://www.kubeflow.org/docs/about/community/> in the channel
#distro-openshift-ai <https://kubeflow.slack.com/archives/CFCFM1ZPS> for
any community questions and conversation.
*What’s NOT changing:*
- Red Hat’s commitment to Open Source in the age of AI. Read more
<https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/the-power-of-ai-is-open> from Red Hat’s
Chief Product Officer Ashesh Badani on this.
- Open Data Hub remains an open-source project from Red Hat. We will
continue to develop in the same GitHub repos
<https://github.com/opendatahub-io>. Open Data Hub continues to remain
the codebase from which we derive Red Hat OpenShift AI
<https://www.redhat.com/en/technologies/cloud-computing/openshift/openshif...>
.
- Builds of Open Data Hub continue.
- We continue to encourage Partners to develop against Open Data Hub.
- We continue to encourage pre-sales engagements and prototypes using
Open Data Hub.
- Open Data Hub maintainers will continue to review PRs and Issues in
GitHub, and answer questions on the Open Data Hub slack at a best effort
level.
We would like to thank the Open Data Hub community for their involvement
and we continue to welcome contributions via our github repo. It has been a
successful journey to this point, and we truly appreciate every single one
of you. See you on GitHub!
Onward and up(stream)ward!
