Enterprise Open Source Session The Secret Ingredient to a Successful Open Source Project
The Secret Ingredient to a Successful Open Source Project
Jun. 5, 2006 03:00 PM
When re-thinking the manufacturing process of enterprise software, most companies nowadays determine to leverage open source to boost popularity and attention onto their product lines. But converting projects into products is not easy, and some secret ingredients that aren't covered in the code sharing are vital for generating future success. These key ingredients are how the project is built, the architecture of the enterprise software to be modular & open, a clear vision and definition of what the project and product will deliver, a clear separation between the open source aspects and the commercial aspects, and most importantly trust from the community that the project at every stage in life is extremely beneficial to their daily needs and will continue to be so with the future direction.
