Abstract

In this paper, we start with a discussion of Software Development Governance (SDG), and clarify its relationships to management and process. We discuss how these organizational components are related and present our view on SDG and its concerns. Throughout the paper, we use the Linux open source development project where we show how SDG is used to achieve productive development in an environment which is often considered to have anarchic characteristics.
