Open Source and Agile: Two worlds that should have a closer interaction

The text size have been saved as 80%.

Agile methods and open source software communities share similar cultures with different approaches to overcome problems. Although several pro- fessionals are involved in both worlds, neither agile methodologies are as strong as they could be in open source communities nor those communities provide strong contributions to agile methods. This work identifies and exposes the ob- stacles that separate those communities in order to extract the best of them and improve both sides with suggestions of tools and development processes.
