+[[!meta title="The Cathedral & The Bazaar"]]
+
+* Author: Eric S. Raymond
+
+## Main themes
+
+* Linus Law: "Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow" (page 30);
+  "debugging is parallelizable" (page 32).
+
+* Delphi Effect: "the averaged opinion of a mass of equally expert (or equally
+  ignorant) observers is quite a bit more reliable a predictor than the opinion
+  of a single randomly chosen observer" (page 31).
+
+* Brooks Law: "complexity and communication costs of a project rise with the
+  square number of developers" (pages 32, 49).
+
+## Misc
+
+* Kropotkin is cited at page 52: "principle of understanding" versus the
+  "principle of command".
+
+* Visão libertariana: "The Linux world behaves in many respects like a free
+  market or an ecology, a collection of selfish agents attempting to maximize
+  utility, which in the process produces a self-correcting spontaneous order
+  more elaborate and efficient than any amount of central planning could have
+  achieved." (page 52). Logo em seguida ele nega a existência de um autruísmo
+  puro.
