As I’m talking about #opensource more, people are asking me for books to read that give some background. I’ll add links in this thread, can you help suggest some great books & articles? #opensourcereading

ESR’s Cathedral & The Bazaar from 1997 is pretty foundational. Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cathedral_and_the_Bazaar ESR’s original essays: catb.org/~esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/ — which links to a bunch of other articles & responses. #opensourcereading

On the recommendation of @trentmc0, @expede and I both read Hintjens’ “Social Architecture: Building Online Communities” talk.fission.codes/t/social-architecture-building-online-communities-pieter-hintjens-2016/47 This is very focused on the creation & operation of an open source software project. #opensourcereading

The basis for open source is the legal innovation of copyleft and other forms of open licensing. Read through @kemitchell’s blog posts for deep commentary on software licensing writing.kemitchell.com/ #opensourcereading

Aside from licensing, the practice of groups of people working on creating software together is a key innovation. @twleung reminded me that this has a name: Commons Based Peer Production talk.fission.codes/t/explaining-commons-based-peer-production-er-open-source-ted-leung-2005/142 #opensourcereading

Via @twleung’s article, this introduced me to Yochai Benkler’s “Coase’s Penguin, or Linux and the Nature of the Firm” talk.fission.codes/t/coase-s-penguin-or-linux-and-the-nature-of-the-firm-yochai-benkler-2002/143 Coase wrote economic theories about corporations. How does open source fit into this? #opensourcereading

Mozilla’s Principles, which are broader than just open source & gets me to thinking that we do need to talk about things beyond code licensing. #opensourcereading @kaereste/1155592081731203072
