Fedora "Create" Community: Working together to Get Stuff Done
(formerly Solutions Integration Community)
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.
Read about the Solutions Integration Community if you would like to know more about the community, this section of the wiki, and how you can get involved.
