Motivation

When I "navigate" through another developers communities I see how they are strong in terms of open source world. Seeing this I started a digital event here in last year (can be read here) to promove this initiative.

About event

Prizes

The Hacktober team will offer for the first 50.000 developers where make 5 pull requests in October a t-shirt and I'll give a book from sap press for the user who create more pull requests in the ABAP Projects.

Very cool.  I'm kind of late reading this.  And I must say I - like many of you - find myself with no time to join.

I'll be looking forward to seeing the result(s).

Many thanks for your time c436ae948d684935a91fce8b976e5aa7 !

Yeah, have a time is really complicated, I assume, but when you have one, participate. We need to promove this open source idea in our community.

P.S.: Tomorrow I'll publish the current ranking.

BR,

Raphael Pacheco.

Hi!

I am also trying to promote open source in the ABAP world, which is why I made this abap turtle graphics contest: https://blogs.sap.com/2019/10/12/abapturtle-make-something-pretty-in-abap-and-possibly-win-prizes/

Since a sumbission to the graphics contest requires submitting the code used to generate the image, would you consider that a "valid change in an ABAP project"?

[raphael_almeida]

Hmmmmm, You got me hehehe. Yes, it can be valid.

 

Also, awesome project.
