Cathedral+and+Bazaar


 * Names: Chelsea, Jonathan, Danielle**

//What is the difference between the "cathedral" and the "bazaar" method of writing software?// - Cathedral
 * projects that are planned out ahead of time
 * source code is guarded by a core group of developers
 * An example is Wales and Sanger's initial version of an online encyclopedia
 * Sanger proceeded to create, in effect, an online academic journal, complete with a review process, to weed out the garbage
 * Sanger and the Nupedia board had worked out a multistage editorial system that could have been borrowed from any scholarly journal
 * it was all much too slow

- Bazaar
 * source code was released on the Internet for anyone to tinker with
 * Raymond argued that the latter model was better, and he coined a now-famous hacker aphorism to capture its superiority: “Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow.”
 * Ward Cunningham trying to create a “pattern language” for software design. A pattern language is in essence a common vocabulary used in solving engineering problems
 * Apple’s Hypercard offered inspiration - flexible database application
 * Any wiki is a good example- lots of authors. No review. Errors only get fixed if a viewer sees them and bothers to fix them.
 * The work is done by an army of volunteers, over the internet.
 * Much faster
