Creating a GitHub organization with public repos is free, fast, and easy. This fosters a wild west of GitHub usage within corporations that is as confusing and troubling as it is liberating and empowering. We explore how GitHub has been used organically throughout Cisco and efforts to establish best practices that enable efficient open source collaboration that is responsible and sustainable. The audience is anyone considering or already running a corporate GitHub organization as well as anyone considering or already collaborating with partners and customers through a corporate GitHub organization. The benefit is becoming better open source citizens by having consistency and transparency without sacrificing freedom and innovation.
