                    The network of participants in open source projects can be mapped and visualized using social network analysis. This visualization can identify the key participants involved in various clusters that make up the project, providing a map of how individuals are collaborating to fulfill tasks. The information can be used to identify key members such as knowledge brokers, help better integrate peripheral members, and facilitate locating experts or possessors of relevant tacit knowledge. I will discuss a case study of the TikiWiki open source community comparing (1) the traditional approach of analyzing mailing list exchanges, and (2) a more interesting analysis of the wiki used by the community.<br /><br />

Slideshow transcript

Slide 1: Wiki SNA Issues  Page renames and refactoring  Vandalism and page rollbacks  Directory vs. content pages  Similar pages  Duplicated content across pages  Translated pages (cc) attribution, share-alike

Slide 2: More Wiki SNA Issues  Positive / negative contribution  Different types of contribution  Friend vs. enemy  Reputation  Member turnover (cc) attribution, share-alike

Slide 3: Conclusions  Wiki provides different focus from mailing list  Use of SNA needs to go beyond identifying knowledge brokers – Richer detail needed – Alternative non-graph presentation?  Analysis of different time periods useful – But needs to be easier (cc) attribution, share-alike

Slide 4: Conclusions  Challenges exist but can be overcome  Synergies with related research exist (cc) attribution, share-alike
