<THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. UPDATES DUE JULY 8, 2020.>

The DCI working group was chartered in part with providing recommendations to the TSC to improve diversity, civility, and inclusion at Hyperledger.

After about 1 year of activity the DCI working group offers this list of recommendations, observations, and artifacts.

Survey

One of our first chartered deliverables was to quantify the diversity of our open source community. We learned two things in this process.

Surveys are not effective

We compared process and results with Cloud Foundry and found that both organizations saw about 10% response rate to community surveys.

Our contributor population is not diverse 

A proper statistical review of our survey could not be conducted and so it is hard to say much with certainty. However, reviewing the raw numbers, and even considering the limited response rate, it is hard to reach a conclusion that Hyperledger represents a diverse contributor body.

Raw results are available here:
