The Lessons

19

Code is only a fraction of the software value chain

It's the whole value chain that creates market-ready offerings.

Users want a full business proposal, not just bare code.

Decision-makers expect market-ready offerings.

i.e. code complemented by: packaging, services, training, maintenance, support, etc.

20

Collaborative development stops short of delivering market-ready offerings.

Ecosystems are expected to deliver agreed-upon technologies, roadmaps, reference implementations, POCs and components.

Open source developers natural bias is to concentrate on core code functionalities.

Code is the soul of free and open source projects.

21

Successful open source projects are supported by IT companies.

Corporate support ensures roadmap consistency and long-term sustainability.

Corporate support develops industry-grade distributions and market-ready offerings.

Corporate support helps grow market outreach, sign-up early adopters and provide use cases for mainstream market.

22

Successful collaborative projects implement flawless open source governance.

Open source governance best practices help build sustainable communities.

Code complementers more likely to contribute to trustworthy OSS projects.

Non-Profit open source organizations provide neutral support and sustainability.
