Is there an "official" Apache Way presentation?

[dr...@primary.net]

Hi, all;
    As mentioned a long while back, I'm putting together content for a 
potential class about open source at the local university. As a primer 
for the class, I'll be giving a talk on Thursday and I would like to 
include a "The Apache Way" presentation. I've seen lots of these, but 
they have all been different with the speakers' own flare added. I know 
that Nick put together his presentation at ACNA2015 with input from 
several others' [1], but I'm not aware of a "canonical" presentation. 
Does such a thing exist? Should such a thing exist?

If the respective answers are no and yes, I'll be happy to produce a 
deck for the talk on Thursday and put it in the slide store [2].

Other thoughts/comments welcome

No, not really.  As with any good presentation, what should be in it
depends on your audience.  In particular, are you talking about what the
ASF actually is and our background, or just the theories of the Apache
Way?  Is this about how we actually use it at the ASF specifically, or
is it about the general principles as guiding lights for some other
community?  Personally, I find explaining the basics of what the Way
should be different than explaining the actual implementation the
Foundation and many projects actually use, in terms of the specific
rules vs. best practices we have.

For overview info - what the ASF actually is - look at various State Of
The Feather presentations from the past couple of ApacheCons.

Along with the speakers/slides page, many folks use SlideShare.

Separately, I've long thought about trying to get a side thing doing
open source curriculum, so if you have any stories about your
experiences working with the university or the professors you're
partnering with, please share!

I've done a bunch, available:

	http://people.apache.org/~jim/presos
	http://slideshare.net/jimjag/

and they are all under Creative Commons. If you need the orig
PPT/PPTX/Keynotes, let me know.

But yeah, afaik, there is no real canon slidedeck; everyone
shares and uses what's appropriate for the audience they
are presenting to, as well as to better match their own
style.

What has typically happened is that people pass versions around, so that 
there are many many forks of the presentation floating about. Mine is in 
Git at 
https://github.com/rbowen/presentations/blob/master/apache_way/slides.md 
and online at http://boxofclue.com/presentations/apache_way/
