   @aral @angristan @framasoft @rook The OSI is the cathedral, the FSF is the bazaar.

      @maiyannah I don't think that works ... since ESR founded OSI && wrote that book

         @boneidol So that invalidates the fact that the OSI exemplifies the thinking he describes using that allegory?

            @maiyannah it just means that mapping Cathedral -> OSI; Bazaar -> FSF doesn't work very well as a one line throwaway comment!

               @boneidol You could have just said "no, it does not."

                  @maiyannah thats not what I said... OMFG !  Bazaar/Cathedral are dev practices; it's nothing to do with OSI/FSF or software freedom ethics. The metaphor you provided seemed contrived to me and not a good fit.  But whateverz. Enjoy.

         Btw, you also have to keep in mind that the first version of the Cathedral and the Bazaar says "Free Software", which was replaced by "Open Source" later. As said, the book is mainly about a development methodology which you can apply to Free Software (no matter how you call it) and proprietary software as well.
