Making Data Transparent and Accessible with Avi Press

Avi Press, CEO and Co-Founder of Scarf, joins me for an in depth conversation about Scarf and the work they are doing in transparecny in open source maintainers. Avi’s career and the tools he built lead to a decision to capitalize on his tools. Now Scarf is an extension of his work into a commercial opportunity to change the open source ecosystem. Avi addresses the general maintaner issues that Scarf wishes to solve. Avi expands on his processes that have landed on a data forward approach and the importance of making that data is a viable capital value. Avi also breaks down the uses of Scarf for maintainers and the suite of tools they are implementing. Importantly so, Avi talks about the ways that the open source space can change to stay innovative and relevant. Highlights:Introduction to Avi and Scarf’s work (00:00)Shaping his own tools for use (03:50)Scarf’s suite of tools and engaging with the metrics (06:14)Some highlights and information for Scarf users (12:41)Areas where Scarf is building (17:00)How Scarf is working to guard privacy (22:12)Making registry lock in a conversation (27:30)Avi discusses the open source world and some changes that can be made (30:00)Links:AviLinkedInTwitter: @avi_pressScarf
