摘要: Foundations function as a vital institutional support infrastructure for many of the most successful open-source projects, but different roles played by these entities are understudied in Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS) research. Drawing on Hub (formerly known Ohloh) data, this paper empirically investigates how projects interact with other projects. This study was conducted using Theoretical Saturation Grounded Theory approach given large volume data hand. The findings synthesized taxonomy entities, categorization mechanisms set dynamics interactions between FLOSS entities.
