Corporate participation in open source communities
,----[ Quote ]
| Someone recently asked me a few question about corporate participation in
| open source communities and I thought I'd share my thoughts on this topic
| here.
|
| Are there differences between an open source project done for a corporation
| and one done for personal reasons?
|
| There are many different ways to run an open source project, led by a
| corporation or by someone else. Some projects that are run by corporations
| have few outside contributors. This is often the case with projects that
| require copyright assignment (i.e. contributors have to assign their
| copyright to the corporation). These projects may not gain all the benefits
| of a true open source community, such as outside contributions or high levels
| of peer review. However, they may still be very successful projects and may
| have high levels of quality.
