Wiki-style open source development
Wikipedia has worked so well for providing a pretty decent source of quality information as an alternative to the old-school encyclopedia. I’ve always wondered what would happen if someone applied the Wiki philosophy to the development of a real open source library. Anyone can make changes to the code without even being registered. What kind of results would this have?
- Faster development?
- More bugs?
- More features?
- Hackers injecting security vulnerabilities?
It would be interesting to find out. Anyone want to volunteer to run an experiment?
