I don't have any problem contributing to 3rd party open source projects at work time for e.g. fixing a bug, but how do you deal with your OWN open source? Let's say you have a small library you made personally, then use it at work, then find a bug during work hours. If I contribute during those work hours, I think that'd be on the gray zone.

Has anyone negotiated this during an interview? How do you do it?

I’ve never worked anywhere that actually cared about this in practice. I just did what needed doing. When I asked about how to do it “right”, I could never get any answer.
