The concept of forking has become synonymous with branching out independently on a project.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at OSFF in NYC - this was our largest one yet! Here are some of the highlights:
Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the last couple of weeks, you should be aware of the OSFF conference that happened on the 1st November in grand style in the Marriott Marquis hotel in New York.
Open Source Readiness was featured heavily not only in the keynotes and at our project table (thanks to Brittany Istenes, Cara Delia and Mimi Flynn for their staffing duties) but also in the press release on the state of open source in financial services.
Over the next couple of weeks I am going to focus on some of these announcements. Starting with:
During our recent Open Source in Finance Forum, we had the opportunity to recognize many of the incredible individuals and companies making significant contributions and creating a positive impact in open source in financial services. We're extremely grateful for all of their work, along with so many others, and want to give them another shout out in this post!
This year at FINOS we are focusing on one of FINOS' key existing projects: Open Source Readiness. This is FINOS' term for helping the finance industry "do open source properly".
Happy Halloween to all the Open Source Readiness readership. This week: the ominous OSFF occurs, possessed pull-requests are closed and bewitching breakout sessions are announced.
