10.9 Summary In this chapter, we reviewed how to manage a team, the process and roles, and the more important typical deliverable documents. There are some improvements to consider suggested by successful practices in the open source software community. For most organizations, the new issues posed by open source software are less that they will be creating it than that they will be using the software. employing or otherwise interacting with authors, and integrating it with their own work. There may be opportunities to use open source methods within the organization. There may be a need to review policies that may be overly restrictive on copyright and work for hire in the light of open source possibilities. The issue of support is critical for organizations adopting open source software. The organization nee a clear expects way of support, what it is willing to provide, and what it wants to pay for. Given this, the resources are available to deliver this, generally at non reasonable prices and with more flexibility than from closed code vendors.
