The charter aims at contributing to the implementation of legal, technical and community management best practices
Improve the overall perception and market readiness of the projects
Make projects easy-to-contribute-to
Improve projects' perceived trustworthiness
Make projects sustainable: worth contributing to, worth investing in
Overall, improve professionalism of EU OSS SMEs and EU-supported open source projects
Jun 15, 2016 24
Governance makes the difference
Repositories and forges are just places to store/develop code
GitHub, BitBucket, SourceForge, BerliOS, etc.
Open source licensing code does not make an OSS project
Hundreds of thousands of OSS are still waiting for contributors
Communities are built around well respected OSS governance
Transparent, Open, Fair, etc.
Third-party stakeholders expect:
Trustworthiness
Predictability

Implement an open source governance
AppHub's projects commit to implement a transparent governance aimed at fostering the principles of open source cooperation.
Being transparent, fair and open with stakeholders, sharing with stakeholders, maintaining a communication infrastructure, defining rules of engagement is key.
Jun 15, 2016 29
Appropriate OSS License Selection and Management
AppHub's projects commit to implement and manage a suitable intellectual property policy and select appropriate licenses and copyrights.
This include ensuring that all project artifacts are properly covered by a recognized open source license, that all licenses are compatible and contribution ownership is properly managed.
Jun 15, 2016 30
Develop and Maintain Project Documentation
All stakeholders, whether code-contributors, users, evaluators, project managers, or customers need documentation.
Whatever its size and shape, software must be documented. AppHub's projects commit to create and maintain decent documentation.
Jun 15, 2016 31
Apply patterns and component-based architecture
AppHub's projects commit to applying well-known patterns and a component based architecture.
Because using components permits reuse, improves maintainability and extensibility, facilitates third-party contributions and promotes clean division of work among teams of developers, and enables the integration of commercially available components.
Jun 15, 2016 32
Implement a thorough Testing Process
Recognizing that software testing is an integral part of the development processes, AppHub's projects commit to conduct software testing for each new release in a proactive and timely manner covering appropriate scope with suitable methodologies.
Jun 15, 2016 33
Promote Project Maintainability and Stability
AppHub's projects commit to specify, develop and maintain non-functional requirements that aim at improving the project's maintainability and stability.
This include managing the interoperability between old and new versions and paying special attention to the most oftenused older versions.
Jun 15, 2016 34
Manage Project Requirements and Roadmap
While open source projects often evolve in response to most influential contributions, requirements are dynamic and expect them to change with time.
AppHub's projects commit to properly manage requirements and to publish and maintain a project roadmap.
Jun 15, 2016 35
Establish a Configuration Management Process
AppHub's projects commit to establish and maintain the integrity of the projects and its different versions and configurations.
This includes tracking changes and managing releases and the state of all artifacts that make up the project efficiently through the use a state-of-the-art configuration / version management system.
Jun 15, 2016 36
Use of Established and Widespread Standards
AppHub's projects commit to promote the use and implementation of open standards, specially those certified by FLOSS-supporting standard organizations such as IETF, IEEE, OGF, OASIS, W3C, etc.
Jun 15, 2016 37
Manage contributions transparently
Managing contributions is fundamental to open source software projects.
AppHub's projects commit to managing this activity transparently by using a state-of-the-art environment that facilitates documentation contributions, bug reports and code commits.
