## InnerSource Program Mind Map

This first categorization effort uses a mind map to categorize patterns based on the different phases of an InnerSource Program, and the challenges that might appear in the respective phases. See [innersource-program-mind-map.html](innersource-program-mind-map.html). Note that this is still an incomplete visualization i.e. it does not contain all of our patterns.

In the mind map you will see patterns categorized from left to right in increasing levels of detail.

To add new patterns to the mind map, edit the source file `innersource-program-mind-map.md`, and then regenerate the visualization like this:

## Adding a Pattern to the Mind Map

To add new patterns to the mind map, edit the file [innersource-program-mind-map.md](innersource-program-mind-map.md). Also see the explanation of the different levels in the mind map above.

25

Then create a PR with your changes. This triggers an [action](https://github.com/InnerSourceCommons/InnerSourcePatterns/actions/workflows/generate-mindmap.yml) that generates the mind map in HTML and PNG format, and adds those to your PR.

To test your changes locally, you can also generate the mind map yourself like this:

## Future Ideas for Categorization
31

32
36
We have some other ideas for categories by which the InnerSource Patterns could be grouped.

37
34
-
One is **management and empowerment**. Some patterns help to manage, govern, mitigate risk. Some other patterns help to empower, attract, build communities. This categorization can help others to quickly find the group of patterns that fit their needs.
35
-
36
-
Another angle is **single project vs organization**. Some patterns are applicable to single project, while others are organizational effort. For people working on specific initiative, single project level patterns might be more interesting. For people working on scaling InnerSource, organizational patterns are important.

***InnerSource Adoption Obstacles** - The [2020 State of InnerSource Research](https://innersourcecommons.org/documents/surveys/State.of.InnerSource.Report.2020.pdf) identifies various obstacles for InnerSource adoption (see page 25). We could identify the patterns that help address each of these obstacles.
