Open Source Is Not Enough, Developer Argument Gains Traction

Original: Open source is not enough

A commentary piece titled 'Open source is not enough' argues that releasing code under an open license alone does not guarantee sustainable software, adoption, or community maintenance. The argument has drawn heavy engagement among developers and software communities, sparking debate over what else open projects need, such as funding, governance, documentation, and long-term maintainers.

Why now: Ongoing concerns about funding, maintenance and sustainability of open source projects have made critiques of the open source model a lively debate.
