Frequently Asked Questions
What qualifies as an open source project?
Most programs require a publicly available repository with an OSI-approved license (MIT, Apache 2.0, GPL, etc.). Some require minimum activity, stars, or contributor counts.
Can I use free tools for commercial open source?
It depends on the program. Many allow commercial open source (e.g., Docker, Sentry), but check each program's terms. Some are limited to non-commercial community projects.
How do I apply as an open source maintainer?
Most programs have a simple application form where you link your repository. Some verify through GitHub's maintainer status. Response times vary from instant to a few weeks.
