Patterns 2.0 - Strategy Formation

Defining the next chapter for Green Software Patterns

Green Software Patterns is one of the GSF's most widely used resources: an open-source database of software patterns that, when applied, reduce software emissions. But the project needs a clear strategy for what comes next. What should version 2.0 look like? How should patterns be structured, reviewed, and maintained? What's missing?

This assembly will bring together participants from GSF member organisations for a series of facilitated strategy workshops. Over four weeks, the group will work through the big questions: what's working, what's not, where the gaps are, and what the next phase of the Patterns project should prioritise.

Sessions will be structured and facilitated, with collaborative exercises on Miro boards and GitHub discussions to capture ideas and build consensus. The outputs will feed directly into the Patterns project roadmap and shape how the Community Working Group approaches the next phase of development.

If you care about practical, actionable guidance for building greener software (and you want a say in what that guidance looks like) this is your chance to shape one of the most visible resources in the green software movement.
