Wayne Beaton of the Eclipse Foundation shares some tips on building open source communities: "Make community development a part of your project’s regular work that is every bit as important as writing the actual code. Make sure that all of your developers understand that community development is important and encourage them all to participate. Assume that it’s going to take a while. You’ll know that you’ve been successful when it starts to take on a life of it’s own".
