Week after week, we have been asked if GitHub’s 2017 https://opensourcesurvey.org/2017/ was the latest source of data about the open source community and its diversity. The https://training.linuxfoundation.org/training/course-catalog/?utm_content=inline-mention‘s 2021 “https://www.linuxfoundation.org/tools/the-2021-linux-foundation-report-on-diversity-equity-and-inclusion-in-open-source/” provides some updated positive and negative answers.
