- The best public domain programs known were created by many programmers
- working together. Everyone of these did a little share of work.
- But the begin and development of such a workgroup was a result of randomness.
-
- One could think of rules for finding the need for a new program, for
- example a newsgroup with suggestions for new programs, together with
- a sort of democratic decision to start a new project.
-
- For the development of such a project, one could thing of a bbs, where
- everyone willing to take a part of the burden can find a task to solve.
- This procedure should have to be higly formalized in a top-down-manner.
