We're happy to say that we recently released the code for the TraceView Ruby instrumentation on Github as Open Source. There are a ton of benefits for AppNeta (and the community) in doing this so making the decision was easy... but the process of actually opening the repository and still keeping a few things private was slightly trickier. Here's the route we took that has worked out really well.

The Situation and Strategy

The Ruby instrumentation has always been sheltered on Github - albeit always in a private Github repository. We used the issues, pull requests and wiki pages extensively for everything from new employee resources to hosting screenshots, customer issues, internal discussions and links to other project and management tools (e.g. Asana).

Outside of the commits and the code, everything else was either of little use to the public or potentially company or customer confidential - stuff that shouldn't or couldn't be shared publicly. So this put us

1. encode multiple bitrates with keyframe alignment:
   ffmpeg -i ~/Movies/5D2_Portrait.MOV -s 1280x720 -c:v libx264 -b:v 1450k -bf 2 \
     -g 90 -sc_threshold 0 -c:a aac -strict experimental -b:a 96k -ar 32000 out.mp4

   My input was 30 fps = 3000 ms. If it were 29.97, then a GOP size of 90 frames will yield a base segment
   size of 3003 milliseconds. You can make the segment size some multiple of this, e.g.: 6006, 9009, 12012.
