Abstract
Fostering organic contributions from volunteers is sometimes seen as the only path towards a sustainable FOSS project. This talk will challenge that common wisdom. We will look at some of the engineering and the organization behind a complex year-long project: building a new rendering backend for MapLibre Native. This was delivered by a team of professional graphics engineers in a collaboration with AWS and Meta. What can other FOSS projects learn from this success story?
