Un documento di tipo manifesto sviluppato da Eric S. Raymond nel 1.998 per cercare di spiegare dalla sua prospettiva ed esperienza (Fetchmail Development) ciò che ha capito sulla creazione e l'evoluzione di successo di Linux e dei suoi programmi correlati, soprattutto dal punto di vista della differenza tra i modelli di sviluppo software, che ha personalmente chiamato: Cathedral Model e Bazaar Model.

Review of 'The Cathedral & the Bazaar' on 'Goodreads'

It's kind of funny to read, because there are so many cornerstones of techno-libertarian ideology presented in the essays. At the time the essays were written it was probably all kind of new and exciting, but nowadays those positions are kinda hard to defend.

The parts about Linus Torvalds are gold, as it's argued that he's such a sweet and agreeable person. And it's also pointed out how not attacking the authors and speaking softly are core skills when working in a Bazaar-like environment. I guess we all can safely call bullshit on those points, c.f. arstechnica.com/business/2015/01/linus-torvalds-on-why-he-isnt-nice-i-dont-care-about-you/

All
in all I'd say it's a good read if you want some historic context of the OSS movement, otherwise you can safely skip it.
