Who the Vox Pupuli Are and How They Work with Puppet

Great things – tools, spaces, companies, brands – are supported by great communities. The Vox Pupuli are perhaps the most prominent, active group in the Puppet community. Here’s what they're up to lately, what it’s like being one of them, and what Puppet (the community) means to Puppet (the company).

The Vox Pupuli are 200+ strong; they maintain dozens of modules on the Forge; even executive leadership knows their name. On this episode of Pulling the Strings, join Puppet community members Gene Liverman, Tim Meusel, and Ben Ford for a casual discussion on what what Vox Pupuli actually do, the role of community in shaping a company like Puppet, what Vox Pupuli is focused on now, and what drives the highly engaged group. As Tim puts it, “There is no excuse to not participate.”

Highlights:

  • How Vox Pupuli works
  • The relationship of Puppet (the company) to the Vox Pupuli
  • The power of independence
  • The time Vox Pupuli helped Puppet avoid disaster in a new release
  • What Vox Pupuli is working on now

Speakers:

  • Gene Liverman, SRE at LTN Global and former SRE at Puppet by Perforce
  • Tim Meusel, Vox Pupuli PMC Community Member
  • Ben Ford, Community Lead at Puppet by Perforce
