Request for feedback on open-sourcing projects from NI systems engineering

[smithd]

I'm in the systems engineering group at NI. Over the course of the past year(s), we've received feedback (most recently here -- sorry, this link is in the ni.com/community CLA group so access may be restricted) that some members of the community would be interested in contributing to some of the projects we've already released, or potentially working with us to identify future projects that might benefit the community at large.

 

We'd like to renew this conversation by opening up a discussion of what projects might interest the community. That discussion is posted here:

https://decibel.ni.com/content/thread/23441

 

If you have any thoughts or feedback, feel free to post here or in that discussion. We're very interested in hearing from you.

Hi,

 

I clicked on your first link but it says "It appears you're not allowed to view what you requested", even though I joined the group.

The discussion/poll that is referenced by the first link is located in the CLA group on NI Community. Group membership is limited to current CLAs and requires approval by the group administrator.

Sorry about that. The link was to a poll on the CLA community, as Christian mentioned. The results indicated heavy support for opening the GDS toolkit which is now covered under the process identified here: https://decibel.ni.com/content/groups/community-source-of-ni-code

 

This new discussion was intended to be more open-ended than the poll. It is posted here: https://decibel.ni.com/content/thread/23441

Now if only LabVIEW was open source...
