“…Conversely, open source has given rise to related phenomena such as open data (Gurstein 2011;Streeter et al 1996), open innovation (von Hippel and von Krogh 2003;West and Bogers 2014;West and Gallagher 2006), open government (Daffara and Gonzalez-Barahona 2010;Janssen et al 2012;O'Reilly 2010), open standards (West 2007), open hardware (Powell 2012), and open platforms (Boudreau 2010;Economides and Katsamakas 2006;Krishnamurthy and Tripathi 2009;West 2003). These phenomena are also built around openness and transparency as the dominant principles.…”

Open source communities rely on the espoused premise of complete openness and transparency of source code and development process. Yet, openness and transparency at times need to be balanced out with moments of less open and transparent work. Through our detailed study of Linux Kernel development we build a theory that explains that transparency and openness are nuanced and changing qualities that certain developers manage as they use multiple digital technologies and create, in moments of needs, more opaque and closed digital spaces of work. We refer to these spaces as digital folds. Our paper contributes to extant literature: by providing a process theory of how transparency and openness are balanced with opacity and closure in open source communities according to the needs of the development work; by conceptualizing the nature of digital folds and their role in providing quiet spaces of work: and, by articulating how the process of digital folding and unfolding is made far more possible by select elite actors' navigating the line between the pragmatics of coding and the accepted ideology of openness and transparency.

The open source movement has grown steadily and matured in recent years, and this growth has been mirrored by a rise in open source related research. The objective of this paper is to pause and reflect on the state of the field. We start by conducting a comprehensive literature review of open source research, and organize the resulting 618 peer-reviewed articles into a taxonomy. Elements of this taxonomy are defined and described. We then draw on a number of existing categorization schemes to develop a framework to situate open source research within a wider nomological network. Building on concepts from systems theory, we propose a holistic framework of open source research. This framework incorporates current research, as represented by the taxonomy, identifies gaps and areas of overlap, and charts a path for future work.

“…and their members are linked by a shared admiration to that interest. Therefore, due to its increasing importance, there is already a sizeable literature on online groups such as brand communities (Andersen, 2005;Muñiz & O'Guinn, 2001), user innovation communities (Lerner & Tirole, 2002Von Hippel, 2001), open source communities (Krishnamurthy, 2009;Krishnamurthy & Tripathi, 2009) or e-tribes (Kozinets, 1999), that tries to explain the main antecedents and consequences of consumer involvement in them. However, a brief analysis of this literature body allows us to identify three main gaps in this topic:…”
