I started my Open Source Software advantures as a developer around 2002. I haven’t been maintaining a project for longer than a couple of years, but I have decent experience in working with aged and well-settled projects. I have made observations. Here, one talk especially interests me. It should be intesteing to every long time maintainers of Open Source projects based on C++ programming language. It is Renovating a legacy C++ project by noble ACCU member Alan Griffiths.
