Would You Do It for Free Again?
Stormy Peters, Director of Community and Partner Programs for OpenLogic, delivered this keynote presentation at the 2008 Linux Conference Australia. In this presentation she discusses how open source developers work on open source software for a number of reasons from scratching an itch to gaining a reputation to building a resume to contributing to a good cause. The interesting problem comes when money enters into the equation. Research shows that when someone works on something for free (for internal rewards) if you start paying them you replace those internal rewards. Then if you stop paying them, they will stop working on it. Does that hold true for open source software? Are commercial companies killing open source by paying people to work on it?
