Hi Folks,

Below is a position announcement for an online adjunct position in teaching 
open source at Brandeis.

Brandeis University’s Graduate Professional Studies (GPS) is looking for an 
industry expert in the Open-Source Software community to design and teach in 
the new Open Source Technology Management (OSTM) suite of course offerings. The 
specific need is to teach RMGT 290b: Open-Source Community Development

Course description: This course will enable students to understand the various 
roles in communities of practice supporting Open-Source Software development, 
adoption, and maintenance. Students will assess the characteristics, viability, 
and appropriateness of the community; how to participate in the community; and 
the implications of starting new (i.e “forking”) communities. In this course 
students will learn about different types of communities: management 
philosophies, community governance, communication strategies, and how they 
impact the roles and responsibilities of members, the expectations and 
responsibilities of participants, the motivations of different community 
members, and how such communities may align—or not—with corporate interests.
