Description

This academic text examines how free and open source software communities organise themselves by exploring the interconnections between learning, labour division, and commercialisation. Through detailed case studies of the GNOME and KDE projects, the book provides a theoretical framework that bridges community organisation research with cooperation theory to explain F/OS dynamics. Ideal for researchers, academics, and professionals seeking to understand how gift economies and market forces shape open source development and community structures.

Key Features

Detailed case studies of GNOME and KDE projects demonstrate real-world open source community organisation practices.

Innovative theoretical framework synthesises learning, division of labour, and commercialisation within free and open source communities.

Critical assessment of methodologies for examining F/OS community organisation provides research approaches for scholars.

Published by Routledge as part of Studies in Innovation, Organizations and Technology series for academic credibility.

Explores the intersection of gift and market economies in open source software development and community dynamics.
