Yotas
Is OSS's monetisation system, we would like our open source contributors across the organisation to be rewarded for the efforts and energy they put in the platform. Every interaction they have on GitHub will give them a certain amount of yotas they will be able to exchange for goodies in a shop.
Why ?
Contributing to open source requires some efforts, and we would like every single of our contributors to be able to be rewarded for the time and energy they put into helping our community.
Description
This monetisation system is highly inspired by the correction points and wallet point system applied at Ecole 42. The correction points a ecole 42 are points that student earn by correcting other student projects, and loose when they have their projects corrected by other student. A wallet point is one that is earned when a user contribute to the community, wallets are directly exchangeable with goodies like t-shirts with the logo of 42, time in the jacuzzi and other fun rewards.
The yota will be an organisation scoped currency that user will gain by creating issues, reviewing code, having their pull request merged and so on. They will be able to use this well earned money to buy in our shop things like a call with the maintainer of the project, t-shirts, internet connection, time in a coworking space and many other goodies.
Labels
This is a web project, that will highly be based on a GitHub App that will be watching for every events on the organisation and attributing interaction points.
