Open-Source

Read Original

The article analyzes two key perspectives on open-source software. It first critiques the 'bazaar' model popularized by Eric Raymond, arguing it leads to poor architecture and a lack of quality control, contrasting it with the disciplined 'cathedral' approach of early Unix. Secondly, it summarizes advice for open-source maintainers, emphasizing working on projects you personally use and the right to step away to prevent burnout.
