Benefits of Open Source Practices

The Open Source software development community has developed a set of
software development practices and methodologies that have contributed
to the success on the Open Source model. The HEP software development
community has faced challenges such as divergent development, narrow
design constraints, limited communication, and competitive pressures
that may be ameliorated by Open Source development practices. These
practices can be used to good effect in any project, but work best for
Open Source software. Particularly with good modularization techniques,
software developed by the HEP community might be of general utility and
thus the HEP community might be able to share the maintenance burden
of some parts of its software with outside developers by writing Open
Source software and adopting Open Source development practices.
