+# Presentation with Reveal.JS and AsciiDoctor
+
+Remarks:
+- In order to use the preview of the IntelliJ asciidoctor plugin, you need to
set an attribute in the plugin settings: `imagesdir` = `../resources/images`
+- Any css adjustments can go to `src/main/theme/apache.css` as this is
automatically embedded into the themes directory.
+
+## Building the presentation
+
+Apache Training makes use of several tools in order to compile the
presentations.
+The probably simplest way to build the project is using Docker, as we provide
the Dockerfile for installing all prerequisites.
+```
+docker compose up
+```
+This should produce compiled versions of all presentations in your local
working copy.
+
+If you want to build the presentation on your local system the following
command should do.
+However, if you are missing prerequisites, then this build will most probably
fail.
+
+By running the following command, you can generate the presentation:
+```
+mvn package
+```
+## Running the presentation
+
+In order to show the presentation, go into the `target` directory and look for
a directory named {artifactId}-{version}.
+This direcotry contains an `index.html` file.
+
+Simply open this in any browser of your choice.
+
+## Generating PDF versions
+
+In order to generate a PDF version of the presentation just add `?print-pdf`
to the url. (Keep in mind, that you have to add it before any `#blahblah`)
+
+The following link should do the trick:
+```
+http:///{someFilePath}/?print-pdf
+```
+As soon as that's loaded, the presentation will look a bit odd. Now just use
the normal `print` functionality of the browser and select `print as PDF`.

+== Vendor Neutrality in Practice
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Welcome the audience.
+
+Explain that this session explores how vendor neutrality operates in real
Apache communities with nuance, lived experience, and practical guidance for
mentors and PPMCs.
+--
+
+== Why This Talk Matters
+* Vendor neutrality is central to the Apache model.
+* The Incubator is where neutrality issues are most visible.
+* Early patterns strongly influence long-term community health.
+* Lessons come from real podling experience.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Set the stage by explaining why neutrality is not just an ASF rule but
something that directly affects the long-term health of open source projects.
+
+Almost every podling enters the Incubator carrying habits from wherever it
originated. If it started inside a company, that corporate culture shapes early
behaviour. The Incubator is the first place where these dynamics become
visible.
+
+Mention that you have seen hundreds of podling reports, discussions, and
cases. Patterns emerge over time, and sharing them helps new projects avoid
repeating mistakes.
+
+Neutrality is nuanced: strong vendor involvement is normal and often
essential. What matters is transparency, openness, and inclusive governance—not
commit ratios.
+
+Emphasise that neutrality issues often arise unintentionally, from habits,
incentives, or internal processes—not bad actors.
+
+Transition by saying: “Before we explore the patterns, let’s clarify what
neutrality means at Apache.”
+--
+
+== Why Neutrality Matters Now
+* Growing influence of commercial ecosystems.
+* Consolidation in cloud, AI, and data platforms.
+* Open source used strategically by vendors.
+* Increased concern about project independence.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Explain why neutrality is a timely issue.
+
+Many modern open source projects emerge from companies whose business models
intersect with open source in complex ways.
+
+Discuss how vendor-backed open source can raise questions of independence for
users if governance is not transparent. Neutrality builds trust.
+
+Reassure that vendors are valuable contributors—neutral governance does not
reduce vendor participation; it clarifies how influence is earned publicly.
+
+This slide ties neutrality into broader industry trends.
+--
+
+== Common Neutrality Myths
+* “Neutrality means no vendors involved.”
+* “A project must be diverse on day one.”
+* “Mailing lists slow us down.”
+* “Neutrality is a compliance checkbox.”
+* “Private agreements are fine if we announce later.”
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Address common misunderstandings.
+
+Neutrality does not imply anti-vendor sentiment. Vendors are essential actors
in many successful ASF projects.
+
+Diversity isn’t expected at the start—only progress toward independence.
+
+Mailing lists may feel slower than Slack, but they create durable governance
records and prevent misunderstandings.
+
+Neutrality is not about ticking boxes; it is about building a sustainable,
open community.
+
+This prepares the audience for deeper discussion of nuance.
+--
+
+== The Nuance of Vendor Involvement
+* Most podlings begin inside a company.
+* High vendor activity is normal and often positive.
+* Commit ratios alone do not signal control.
+* Neutrality is about governance transparency.
+* Many perceived problems are misunderstandings.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Reinforce that corporate origins are normal and healthy.
+
+A project can have 80–90% vendor commits early on and still be fully neutral
if governance is open and merit-based.
+
+Neutrality is about how decisions are made, not who wrote the most commits.
+
+Many neutrality concerns come from misunderstandings, especially when projects
are young.
+
+This slide positions vendors as partners, not risks.
+--
+
+== What Vendor Neutrality Means at the ASF
+* Individuals act on their own merit.
+* No company controls the project.
+* Governance is public and archived.
+* Branding is independent and community led.
+* Releases and roadmaps follow ASF rules.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Explain merit-based governance: roles are earned by individuals, not companies.
+
+Employment changes; individual merit remains.
+
+All important decisions must be visible on mailing lists, with archives
providing transparency and historical context.
+
+Branding must reflect community ownership, not product identity.
+
+Releases must be built using ASF infrastructure, internal pipelines or private
CI cannot produce Apache releases.
+
+Emphasise this is a vendor-friendly model: vendors participate strongly, but
not exclusively.
+
+Commit ratios are not a measure of neutrality. Governance behaviour is.
+--
+
+== The Incubator as a Governance Observatory
+* Podlings enter with different backgrounds.
+* Early habits reveal structural issues.
+* Mentors see consistent patterns.
+* These patterns form a governance evidence base.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Describe the Incubator as a unique ecosystem where communities with very
different origins converge.
+
+Because podlings enter with diverse corporate habits, the Incubator provides a
clear view of recurring governance patterns.
+
+High vendor presence early is expected—not a red flag.
+
+Neutrality issues can be hidden: public lists may look fine even when private
alignment exists.
+
+The Incubator’s role is supportive—not policing, helping communities
transition toward sustainable governance.
+--
+
+== Early Indicators to Watch
+* One employer provides most commits.
+* Conversations happen in private tools.
+* Website and docs reflect product identity.
+* Roadmaps shaped internally.
+* Independents join but do not stay.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Stress these are **indicators**, not evidence of vendor control.
+
+High vendor commits early are normal. Private tool use often comes from habit,
not intent.
+
+Branding issues frequently stem from marketing teams who don’t know ASF norms.
+
+Internal roadmapping may simply reflect the project’s origins.
+
+These signals help mentors understand where guidance may be needed.
+--
+
+== How Vendor Influence Emerges
+* Habits carried from internal teams.
+* Private tools used for efficiency.
+* Marketing teams shaping identity.
+* Company roadmaps influencing direction.
+* Contributors unsure how to act independently.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Explain that these patterns are almost always **unintentional**.
+
+Internal teams bring fast-moving habits (Slack, Jira, private chats) that are
out of alignment with ASF culture.
+
+Marketing teams may promote the project as part of a product line,
accidentally sending signals of corporate ownership.
+
+Roadmaps set internally before public discussion can unintentionally shape
community expectations.
+
+Independent contributors may hesitate to participate if they feel decisions
are being made elsewhere.
+--
+
+== Hidden or Subtle Neutrality Risks
+* Private alignment before public emails.
+* Employees reluctant to disagree with internal leadership.
+* Marketing direction influencing project identity.
+* Mailing list silence masking private debate.
+* Infrastructure depending on internal systems.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Highlight that not all neutrality risks are visible.
+
+Teams may reach internal consensus before writing to the list, leaving the
list as a formality.
+
+Employees might self-censor due to perceived employer expectations.
+
+Marketing teams might shape naming, messaging, or logos in ways not chosen by
the community.
+
+Silence on lists may not reflect agreement—only private discussion.
+
+Hidden infrastructure dependencies can prevent full community ownership.
+
+These subtleties are why neutrality must be understood, not just measured.
+--
+
+== Clear Problems Requiring Correction
+* Off-list decision coordination.
+* Internal CI producing release candidates.
+* PPMC tied to employment status.
+* Only vendor staff respond on governance topics.
+* External contributors cannot influence direction.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Reinforce that even these issues are usually unintentional.
+
+Internal CI pipelines often existed long before incubation. They are not
malicious, just misaligned with ASF release requirements.
+
+Employment-based commit rights are inherited from corporate structures, not
deliberate power grabs.
+
+The goal is not blame, it’s visibility and correction.
+
+Phrase this as cultural adjustment, not fault.
+--
+
+== Case Study: A Successful Correction
+* Heavy vendor control at entry.
+* Shifted discussion to public lists.
+* Independent contributors onboarded.
+* Release workflow rebuilt using ASF Infra.
+* Branding corrected early.
+* Graduated with diverse PPMC.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Use this story to show that strong vendor involvement can become a graduation
success.
+
+Vendor investment can kick-start momentum and provide clarity.
+
+Once governance moved to lists, new contributors joined, and the project
became visibly community-driven.
+
+Neutrality improved vendor credibility, it legitimised their influence.
+
+End this slide by reinforcing: Vendors can thrive in neutral governance
environments.
+--
+
+== Case Study: When Neutrality Stagnates
+* Company retains central authority.
+* Lists used for announcements, not decisions.
+* Releases tied to private pipelines.
+* Independents cannot meaningfully join.
+* Project cannot demonstrate independence.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Explain that stagnation is seldom intentional.
+
+The vendor team may not realise how opaque internal processes look externally.
+
+Independents struggle when they cannot see where decisions are made.
+
+This is a pattern the Incubator has seen repeatedly. It is correctable, but
only when surfaced.
+
+This slide shows the cost of unexamined habits.
+--
+
+== Case Study: Cultural Governance Tension
+* Commit rights influenced by employment.
+* Votes shaped privately.
+* Governance treated as secondary.
+* Newcomers confused or excluded.
+* Mentor help needed to reset norms.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+A very common pattern, especially for strong engineering teams transitioning
to ASF culture.
+
+Many teams undervalue governance because internal processes feel faster or
more “practical.”
+
+Explain that ASF governance creates long-term strength: visibility, historic
context, dissent tolerance, and independence from employer priorities.
+
+Internal alignment can unintentionally silence alternative viewpoints.
+
+Mentors guide,not dictate, the path to community-led governance.
+--
+
+== The Three Pillars of Neutrality
+
+* Merit Based Participation
+** Roles earned by contribution.
+** Employment does not grant authority.
+
+* Open Decision Making
+** Decisions on archived lists.
+** No hidden agreements.
+
+* Independent Branding
+** Community owns identity.
+** Avoid product-style branding.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Explain the three pillars as mutually reinforcing.
+
+Merit-based participation prevents employer-based authority.
+
+Open decision-making ensures that all contributors can see, understand, and
challenge decisions.
+
+Independent branding avoids tying the project to any corporate product line.
+
+Reinforce that vendor contribution levels are irrelevant. What matters is
transparency, participation, and independence of governance.
+
+Many of the strongest ASF communities are vendor-supported **and** neutral.
+--
+
+== The Neutrality Timeline (part 1)
+
+* Initial Entry
+** Understand starting conditions.
+** Set expectations for public governance.
+
+* First 90 Days
+** Move key decisions to lists.
+** Fix naming and branding.
+** Adopt ASF-aligned release steps.
+
+== The Neutrality Timeline (part 2)
+
+* First Release
+** Release must be community owned.
+** Builds confidence and independence.
+
+* Graduation Readiness
+** PPMC active and diverse.
+** Decisions consistently on list.
+** Community directs roadmap.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Explain that neutrality is something communities **grow into**.
+
+Vendor leadership early is normal and healthy.
+
+The first 90 days are about habits: moving conversations to lists, clarifying
roles, fixing branding, and planning a proper Apache release.
+
+The first ASF-compliant release is a turning point, it demonstrates community
capability, not vendor dependency.
+
+Graduation readiness is not about perfection; it’s about consistent behaviour
over time.
+--
+
+== Practical Actions for Mentors and Podlings
+* Use mailing lists for governance.
+* Encourage independent contributors.
+* Move releases to ASF Infra.
+* Review branding early.
+* Grow PPMC based on merit.
+* Treat neutrality as ongoing.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Make clear that neutrality work does not mean reducing vendor participation.
+
+Instead, it increases community capacity and reduces fragility.
+
+Small changes (asking questions on list, moving decisions public) create major
governance improvements.
+
+Mentors should ask: “Can an independent contributor understand what’s
happening, and participate?”
+--
+
+== Vendor Responsibilities and Good Citizenship
+* Encourage employees to act as individuals.
+* Avoid pre-aligned positions.
+* Discuss roadmaps publicly.
+* Support newcomers without dominating discussion.
+* Provide infrastructure with community oversight.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Encourage employees to speak as individuals, not representatives. This builds
trust and improves the legitimacy of governance.
+
+Discourage internal pre-alignment — it undermines consensus-building.
+
+Community-visible roadmap discussions show that direction is shared, not
dictated.
+
+Supporting newcomers grows the project’s independence and reduces vendor
burden.
+
+If vendors contribute infrastructure, community oversight ensures the project
is not dependent on internal systems.
+--
+
+== Mentor Toolkit: What to Check Monthly
+* Are decisions on list?
+* Is release work visible?
+* Are newcomers joining and retained?
+* Is the PPMC active?
+* Are private tools shaping governance?
+* Has any employer become structurally dominant?
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Give mentors practical, realistic checkpoints.
+
+This is not policing. it is awareness.
+
+Neutrality drift often happens gradually. Monthly reflection helps catch
issues early.
+
+Ask: “Is the community growing in independence?” and “Are contributors outside
the main employer empowered?”
+--
+
+== Reflection: What To Look For In Your Podling
+* Do newcomers feel welcome?
+* Are decisions visible in list history?
+* Can active contributors become committers?
+* Is release work community led?
+* Would the project survive an employer exit?
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Use this as a self-assessment tool for PPMCs and mentors.
+
+Newcomers are a key signal: If they feel lost or excluded, governance is not
sufficiently open.
+
+Decision visibility is essential—someone should be able to read the list
archives and understand how decisions were made.
+
+Committer growth should reflect contribution and interest, not employment.
+
+Release work is the strongest test of community capability. If releases depend
on one employer, sustainability is at risk.
+
+The final question is the core sustainability test: Would this project
continue if one employer stepped back? If the answer is yes, neutrality is
healthy.
+--
+
+== Positive Patterns in Strong Podlings
+* Mailing lists used consistently.
+* PPMC active across employers.
+* Independents join and stay.
+* Community owns releases.
+* Decisions are transparent.
+* Pathways for newcomers are clear.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Highlight what success looks like.
+
+Consistent mailing list use builds shared governance memory.
+
+A PPMC that spans employers (and includes independents) is a strong sign of
health and shared ownership.
+
+Independents joining *and staying* reflects real openness and safety for
contributors outside the main employer.
+
+Release ownership shows that the community, not a company, can perform
essential project functions.
+--
+
+== Why Neutrality Enables Sustainability
+* Attracts a wider contributor base.
+* Reduces risk from employer change.
+* Builds ecosystem trust.
+* Encourages innovation.
+* Ensures project continuity.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Explain that neutrality is not a burden—it is a strength.
+
+Vendor-supported communities often start fast, but long-term sustainability
comes from a diverse contributor base.
+
+Neutrality reduces single points of failure, especially when employer
priorities shift.
+
+Transparent governance encourages innovation because contributors feel safe
proposing ideas.
+
+For vendors, neutrality reduces operational risk and increases project
credibility and adoption.
+
+Neutrality is both a community value and a practical strategy or building
durable open source ecosystems.
+--
+
+== Final Takeaways
+* Neutrality is essential to ASF governance.
+* Incubator patterns reveal issues early.
+* Most issues are unintentional and fixable.
+* Sustainable communities grow through independence.
+* Neutrality is an ongoing cultural practice.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Neutrality is not anti-vendor. It is a shared cultural practice that protects
the community
+and strengthens vendor investment.
+
+Explain that the Incubator is a learning environment, neutrality grows over
time through consistent behaviour.
+
+Encourage ongoing reflection, peer discussion, and openness to adjusting
internal habits for the benefit of the community.
+
+Reassure the audience that neutrality is achievable and that most issues can
be addressed through small, steady improvements.
+--
+
+== Questions
+Questions welcome.
+
+[.notes]
+--
+Invite discussion and questions. Mention that many people have lived
experience with neutrality challenges and transitions.
+
+Encourage sharing of stories—successful corrections, subtle patterns, or
governance dilemmas.
+
+Reinforce the message that neutrality is shared work, not a policing mechanism
or compliance requirement.
+
+Close by emphasising mutual trust, openness, and the collaborative spirit of
the Apache Way.
