Summary

  • Moves the InnerSource Hackathon pattern from 1-initial to 2-structured for publication in the InnerSource Patterns book.
  • Enhances the Solution section with structured guidance on preparation, participation, and event format.
  • Adds a Related Patterns section linking to 5 related patterns.
  • Adds the pattern to the InnerSource Program Mind Map under Begin > Program Setup.
  • Rewrites the patlet to follow the two-sentence problem/solution format.
  • Minor grammar and style fixes throughout.

Note: This PR depends on #899 which adds The Aerospace Corporation as a Known Instance. That PR should be reviewed and merged first so the diff here is limited to structural/promotion changes only.

  • Links to outside resources reference trusted resources

  • Markdownlint checks pass (to be verified by CI)

  • Confirm mind map entry renders correctly
  • Verify related pattern links resolve to existing Level 2 patterns

Add detailed Known Instance based on their InnerSource contribfest
presented at InnerSource Commons Summit 2024 by Tren Baumgarten and
Caroline Jones. Their experience validates the pattern in a
contract-based organization (FFRDC) with 31 participants across 21
departments, 15 tickets closed, and strong post-event engagement.
