Open Source Support

About the Book
This book is intended to be a resource for anybody who is making code freely available on the internet. I do my best to lay out resources you can use to provide free open source software support, as well as potential ways to get paid for the support you do.
About the Writing Style
I'm a big fan of the Minimal Viable Product principle. This means that I've written initial content for all of my chapters, and I am offering that to you at this time. I have my own roadmap, but I hope to get feedback on what readers think I should improve, so that I can support you in the best way possible. I will do my best to include detailed information in the Changenotes that gets sent by Leanpub when the book is updated, so that you've got an idea how things are being improved.
About the Contributors
Ryan Bigg won a Ruby Hero Award in 2011 for his work on documentation within the Ruby on Rails community, including work on several of the official Ruby on Rails guides, and his first book Rails 3 in Action, which is now in its second edition as Rails 4 in Action. On the Leanpub side of things, he wrote Multitenancy with Rails.
He previously worked full-time on the open-source parts of Spree Commerce as the Community Manager, but now works full-time at Culture Amp. Oh, and he is well-known on Stack Overflow for providing great answers for Ruby and Rails questions.
He even has a blog.
