Re: [chat] references to open-source papers


I would suggest the IEEE transactions on Software Engineering, this 
publication is available at university libraries (in Australia anyway, never 
been to a uni library in Chile :-)
I thought they had a special issue on open source, ( I remember reading some 
journal like this at uni last year), but I can't find any reference to it on 
the web.

Did find this reference though:
I. Stamelos, L. Angelis, A. Oikonomou, G. Bleris: "Code Quality Analysis in 
Open-Source Software Development", Information Systems Journal, 2nd Special 
Issue on Open-Source, Blackwell Science, Vol 12 (1), pp 43-60, Feb 2002

I would also go here and search for "open source". You have to pay for the 
articles online, but again they are possibly available for free through a 
university since they are just from the IEEE Software magazine:
