Peripheral Developer Participation in Open Source Projects

Rajiv Krishnamurthy; Varghese Jacob; Suresh Radhakrishnan; Kutsal Dogan

<jats:p> The success of the Open Source model of software development depends on the voluntary participation of external developers (the <jats:italic>peripheral developers</jats:italic> ), a group that can have distinct motivations from that of project founders (the <jats:italic>core developers</jats:italic> ). In this study, we examine peripheral developer participation by empirically examining approximately 2,600 open source projects. In particular, we hypothesize that peripheral developer participation is higher when the potential for building reputation by gaining recognition from project stakeholders is higher. We consider recognition by <jats:italic>internal</jats:italic> stakeholders (such as core developers) and <jats:italic>external</jats:italic> stakeholders (such as end-users and peers). We find a positive association between peripheral developer participation and the potential of stakeholder recognition after controlling for bug reports, feature requests, and other key factors. Our findings provide important insights for OSS founders and corporate managers for open sourcing or OSS adoption decisions. </jats:p>
