CONTRIBUTING TO ODP

The ODP is community-owned and its priorities are defined by the ODP Project, part of the Financial Delivery Accelerator (FDX) Program.

The group collaboratively maintains a prioritized backlog of requirements, and the FINOS Infra team - with the help of FINOS Community - independently works through that backlog in priority order.

Request access below and with your feedback help us building a connected community of open source developers in the financial world.

WHO CAN CONTRIBUTE

Everyone is welcome to read, listen and submit feedback to the Working Group; all content and conversations produced are (and will be) public.

Developers at a financial institution (who may already be a FINOS member) can help prioritizing and/or delivering some of the ODP tasks.

If you're a software vendor providing build automation for open source software, that can help solve friction points many developers at financial institutions face, we'd be happy to work together and host your technology on ODP.

If you are an API provider, working with some of our members or other firms in the financial world, we can host your API on ODP, delivering a first-class onramp experience and facilitating the development of an open eco-system around your platform.
