== "open source" ==

This article seems to be about "open source" in a sense in which it is not just an [[Alternative terms for free software|alternative term for free software]], that is, it is about open-source development of software, rather than development of open-source software. The article avoids any mention of free software, and still it is in the category "free software". Something needs to be done about that, so that it does not encourage the confusion between [[FLOSS]] and public handling of bug reports and feature requests ("source code is publicly available" is also unclear if you consider the article to be about OSS). --[[User:AVRS|AVRS]] ([[User talk:AVRS|talk]]) 12:05, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

== Recent cleanup ==

I have done a major cleanup of this article ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Open-source_software_development&diff=632382154&oldid=631776552 diff]), let me know of any conerns. Thank you! {{small|Posted on WikiProject Computing also.}} --[[User:AmritasyaPutra|<span style="font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif;color: #FF9933">AmritasyaPutra</span>]]^{[[User talk:AmritasyaPutra|T]]} 05:45, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

== Two styles of referencing ==

This article '''mixes''' two styles of referencing:

* the <code><nowiki><ref></nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>{{reflist}}</nowiki></code> method

* the <code><nowiki>{{ref}}</nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>{{note}}</nowiki></code> method

This should be fixed, perhaps by migrating to the <code><nowiki><ref></nowiki></code> system? Perhaps a consensus will develop on which to adopt? Please leave your thoughts. Best wishes. [[User:RobbieIanMorrison|RobbieIanMorrison]] ([[User talk:RobbieIanMorrison|talk]]) 09:27, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
