HIAFF
The cathedral and the bazaar >>
Eric S. Raymond

Eric S. Raymond discusses open source theories in terms of two fundamentally different development styles, the "cathedral'' model of most of the commercial world versus the "bazaar'' model of the Linux world, showing that these models derive from opposing assumptions about the nature of the software debugging task. He then makes a sustained argument from the Linux experience and focuses on the implications of open source for the future of software.
