First of all, I support this proposal. I actually proposed a similar incentive mechanism called Active Contributor about a year ago. However, I must clarify that the material and monetary rewards mentioned in the proposal should come from vendors, not the community itself. I suggest we create a wiki page to document the final implementation plan—but it should exclude the material reward section.
Following is the summary of this proposal: The **Doris Community Hero Program** is an initiative to recognize and support contributors who help grow the Doris open-source community. Here's what you need to know: * Why Join: Gain exclusive benefits, boost your personal brand, and grow with a vibrant tech community. * Member Benefits: * Private discussion group for technical exchange (e.g., Doris x AI) * Official support to build your personal brand * Invite-only offline networking events * Official Hero certificate for active contributors * Regular expert sessions and content sharing * Monthly Interviews: Heroes will be featured in interviews to showcase their stories and insights. * Quarterly Rewards: * Top 10 contributors receive gift cards (¥200–¥2000) and badges. * Annual MVP Recognition: Top contributors get highlighted at the official Doris conference and connect with PMC/core members. * How to Join: Contribute via: * Technical talks (10 Hero points) * Articles or videos (6–10 points) * Community support (6–10 points) * Code contributions (evaluated separately) --Best Regards Mingyu Chen Email: morning...@apache.org At 2025-08-05 20:29:33, "zhangbinhua" <15603008...@163.com> wrote: >I.
