IndiaFOSS 2025 is hosting a Maintainer Summit this year. The Maintainer Summit is a dedicated event for open-source and open-commons maintainers to get together and discuss their perspectives before IndiaFOSS. This is an unconference-style event, which means the schedule of sessions is decided upon by the attendees at the venue.
There will be a few relevant sessions for Indian Maintainers (think sustainability, grants, burnout, community) but the bulk of the schedule will be left open for the attendees.
The organizing team is there to provide the support structure, the maintainers make the summit. This is a maintainer only event. As long as you are a core maintainer for a mid-large open-source or open-commons project, please apply. If you are unsure that you qualify - please apply.
// This event is based off the CNCF Maintainer Summit, see the original proposal for more details. Reach out to indiafoss@fossunited.org for any clarifications.
