After a PR is accepted from someone who has never contributed before, I comment on the PR and ask them if its ok to post about their 1st contribution on Twitter. Below are some examples https://github.com/apache/fluo/pull/964#pullrequestreview-73261438 https://github.com/apache/fluo/pull/966#issuecomment-342848860 https://github.com/apache/fluo/pull/961#issuecomment-339747495 I have been trying to think what Apache could do to celebrate someone's 1st contribution to an ASF project. While thinking about this, I thought about tweeting. Its great that comdev is retweeting. I think it would be nice if 1st time contributors to the ASF could get a t-shirt or something (kinda like hactoberfest by digital ocean :) from the ASF. Is that something the ASF could fund? > > Thanks > Sharan >
