   My only suggestion right now mitght be to read my friend Karl's book. "Producing Open Source Software", which has a bunch on community.

   Or Jono Bacon's book "The Art of Community" is also good.

   One thing you may find, sadly, is that with SOO many projects out there, yours might not get a lot of fellow developers.

   But this sounds like a wonderful idea for a project!

   You are asking the wrong question: How do they Find you?! Make your projects easy to join and contribute. And do Some marketing. Check e.g. the great book The Art of Community, cc licensed so you can check the pdf on https://www.jonobacon.com/books/artofcommunity/

   Congratulations. I was a doubter in the first thread on Parallela, but I'm very impressed and happy that you guys achieved your goal.

   I'd love to hear more about your plans to build a community around the boards now. I'm working on building a community around a yet unreleased but announced open source project myself (http://famo.us/) and I'm in the early stages of planning everything.

   Check out The Art of Community by Jono Bacon, the guy who was responsible for the Ubuntu community. That book has a lot of good stuff.
