Contributions from members of the general db4o developer community play a key role in db4o's success. db4o thrives thanks to contributions in several areas such as source code, documentation, peer support and bug reports, as outlined in the db4o Contribution Guide. A major part are projects around db4o technology which are shared by community members in our ProjectSpaces. The CodeCommander program is designed to identify projects that are of particular importance to both the community and the direction of db4o and to assure the timely and successful completion of these projects.
Specifically the program defines a range of incentives such as collaboration with core team members (including pairing sessions), monetary rewards, access to development infrastructure for project support and marketing of successful projects to a large user community for fast adoption.
For more details about the process and currently selected projects please check the CodeCommander Program page. If you are interested in contributing to these projects (or new projects) under the program (or have any questions) please contact me directly.
We welcome your db4o related project!!!
