We will be showcasing first-time contributions on The ASF’s blog, social media channels, and other channels. To participate or nominate someone, fill out this short form.
Is there a statute of limitations? Nope! Your first contribution could have been 10 years ago or 10 minutes ago; we want to hear about it!
What if I've contributed to multiple projects? Fantastic! Tell us about as many "firsts" as you'd like. Please be sure to fill out a form for each.
Is this campaign only for code contributors? Absolutely not. There are many ways you can contribute to ASF projects, and code is only one of them. Community or developer relations, events, working groups, marketing, etc. ASF projects take a lot of dedicated volunteer efforts beyond code contributions. We want to showcase ALL the work and the people behind it.
