openstack is a "commercial" open source. Several (if not most) developers who contribute are paid by "companies" - so typically new "contributors" find mentors within their "company"

I use vimwiki diary mode, and a cronjob that pops up a vim window (with pre-populated timestamp) every 30 minutes. Been doing that for over 18 months now. Original article where I got this idea : http://www.stochasticgeometry.ie&

While I upvoted the comment - I know it is easier to write "I don't want to talk to you" than say it (even if it is on phone. In-person is even more difficult)
