[[!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.
