Abstract

Dieses Papier entwickelt auf der Grundlage von aggregierten Marktdaten, Dokumentenanalysen sowie Literaturauswertungen einen systematisierenden Überblick über Open Source Software Communities und ihre sozioökonomischen Kontexte. Nach einer Rekonstruktion der Herausbildung quelloffener Entwicklungsvorhaben werden die Beziehungen zwischen Open Source Projekten und etablierten Technologiekonzernen diskutiert. Daran anknüpfend werden entlang ihrer Koordinationsweisen und dem Grad ihrer Unternehmensnähe vier typische Varianten derzeitiger Open Source Gemeinschaften voneinander abgegrenzt. Insgesamt zeigt sich, dass die quelloffene Softwareentwicklung inzwischen zu einer allgemeinen Branchenmethode avanciert ist, dabei aber ihre Formatierung als Gegenentwurf zur kommerziellen und proprietären Herstellung weitgehend verloren hat. Während freie Software zunächst subversiv konnotiert war, ist das Involvement in Open Source Projekte heute zu einem festen Bestandteil der Innovationsstrategien aller großen Softwareanbieter geworden.
