The purpose of the Solutions Integration Community is to foster a self-forming community of Developers and Software Architects as they exchange ideas, identify problem areas, identify best practices, and collaboratively create or improve integration solutions that are useful to the Fedora Commons community. This community has a natural role to ensure that the needs of the other solutions communities are realistically assessed and addressed, and that they are able to access the advice and ideas necessary to make informed decisions.
: Working together to Get Stuff Done
Regardless of how we are using Fedora, or what types of content we are putting into it, we all have a number of common technical challenges that we must all overcome. One of the greatest strengths of Fedora Commons is the fact that it has an active and innovative community of software architects, developers, archivists and librarians working to tackle those challenges in ways that range from pragmatic to visionary.
We've formed a Solutions Community around identifying, documenting, discussing, and solving these technical challenges that we must all face. If you would like to know more about the Community, and how you can get involved, read the page About the Solutions Integration Community. Until then, let's get down to work.
