| "Instead of a management hierarchy dictating how and on what each developer works, volunteers find tasks that interest them and work when they find time. Instead of having the software’s source code (essentially its design) hidden as a company’s proprietary secret, the open source programmers publish their code on the internet for others to read, learn, experiment, modify, improve, and reuse. Instead of erecting organizational barriers to control their development process and their turf, the open source development model brings all its artefacts in the open: discussions between developers and users, problem reports, the historical record of changes made to the software, even results of failed tests. Under this model transparency and self-regulation nurture each other, fostering organic growth and taming complexity."
