A Generation Lost in the Bazaar.

The author argues that quality in computer operating systems is difficult to achieve through grass-roots development and open-source software. Topics include the proliferation of computer startups in the late 1990s, the FreeBSD computer operating system as an alternative to the UNIX operating system...

      ab: The author argues that quality in computer operating systems is difficult to achieve through grass-roots development and open-source software. Topics include the proliferation of computer startups in the late 1990s, the FreeBSD computer operating system as an alternative to the UNIX operating system, information technology, code reuse, and waste in public computer coding. The author mentions the book "The Design of Design," by Frederick P. Brooks and the essay "The Cathedral and the Bazaar," by Eric Raymond.
