Joining scripts?
In Dave Stutz's report on the HBS/Sloan open source symposium he refers to
joining scripts, which are the rituals that somone needs to go through to be admitted on an open source community. Stutz didn't like that name, and it does seem bland to me. But the only other word that I could think of was "hazing", which isn't right either.
Interestingly enough, Ara posted some lessons that he's learned on XDoclet. And a sizable portion of his post involves this idea. He's talking about accepting people too quickly, and then having them leave, etc.
Here's a link to the joining script presentation from the symposium.
