In the premiere episode "What is GR-OSS?", host Jay Faulkner welcomes Alexander Scammon to the G-Research Open Source Software Outreach Podcast. As a founding member of the GR-OSS initiative, Alexander provides an in-depth introduction to this bold experiment in open source transparency. You'll learn the fascinating backstory of how GR-OSS was conceived as well as the curiously named GR-OSS acronym itself - where it came from and what it represents.

Alexander will also give us the first answer to our recurring question: What's a "gross" moment you've had while working on open source?

Whether you're new to open source or a long-time participant, this inaugural show lays the groundwork for a podcast series that isn't afraid to explore the messy realities behind building successful OSS projects and communities. Tune in to understand the vision behind GR-OSS!

The GR-OSS OUT podcast is produced by Ben Wiley.

Special Guest: Alexander Scammon.
