Show Notes Hello and welcome to Sustain! We are at FOSS Backstage
2023 this week, and our host Richard is joined by Paul Berschick,
who’s the organizer of the conference. Paul has been involved with
Foss Backstage from the beginning in 2017, and he talks about the
development of the event and how it has grown over the years. He
mentions that the pandemic helped to refocus the conference and
reach more people online. Paul also talks about his company, Plain
Schwarz. Learn about Paul’s story, his views on the future of open
source, and the personal growth required to get where he is today.
Richard’s next guest is Oleg Nenashev, TOC chair and community
ambassador for the Continuous Delivery Foundation (CDF), and a core

at FOSS Backstage, the public roadmap initiative in Jenkins. Oleg

and how to make open source projects more sustainable and less
fragile in general. Download this episode now to hear more! Links
