Mattermost Plugin Bounty Program
Mattermost has launched a plugin bounty program to work with our integrations community to create highly-requested plugins.
The bounty per plugin ranges from $1,000 to $2,000. The period for submissions is March 16 - May 16, 2019.
If you’re interested joining the program,
- Sign in to https://community.mattermost.com, join the Contributors team and direct message @jason.blais, or
- Email jason[at]mattermost.com with the subject “Mattermost Plugin Bounty Program”
Eligibility
Eligibility is limited to countries we can pay the bounty to. Wires to notable banks are preferred, but other options exist. Please contact us to ensure eligibility.
Moreover, submissions must meet the criteria specified in “Open Projects” section. See below for further details.
Paid staff or hiring candidates on a paid audition are not eligible to participate.
Rules
Multiple submissions are considered on a first-come first-serve basis. If the first submission meets the bounty criteria for a plugin, the first submission receives the bounty.
If multiple people are interested working on the same plugin, we encourage people to work together. The bounty is allocated equally to all contributors. However, Mattermost reserves the right to split the bounty unequally, for instance, when one of the contributors completed majority of the work.
At all times, Mattermost reserves the right to decide if a submission receives a bounty, but we aim to set clear expectations and strive for transparency and fairness throughout the process.
To submit your plugin for a bounty
- Publish it in a GitHub repository licensed under Apache 2.0 or MIT
- Share the link via
- direct message to @jason.blais in https://community.mattermost.com, or
- email to jason[at]mattermost.com with the subject “Mattermost Plugin Bounty Program”
Mattermost may ask you to transfer the repository under the Mattermost · GitHub organization for long-term maintenance. If so, we’ll take steps to ensure you are credited for your work and recognized as the original creator. For an example project transferred to Mattermost, see GitHub - mattermost/desktop: Mattermost Desktop application for Windows, Mac and Linux.
