	43	+Open Source Software certainty is not, and may never have been, principally developed “in somebody’s basement.” The production of open, distributed, and community-driven software requires design and development methodologies, and workflows that support the advantages of peer to peer, highly collaborative, iterative production. Without appropriate processes and methods, collective software development can turn into a mess. Open source development processes and methods are at the core of quality and organizational managers need the knowledge and understanding of open development to make informed decisions. Physical and organizational decentralization is promoted not only by open source community development models, but also by the nature of open licensing models and the culture of sharing and contribution that is an important part of many open source projects. Managing a sustainable community responsible for generating critical organizational information and technology assets can be a complex and consequential undertaking.
	44	+\\In this course you will learn about managing community development in relation to the technology infrastructure frequently used to support decentralized workflow for design, development, and distribution. In addition to introducing elements of technical infrastructure including development, community, communication, distribution, and administration tools, students will be introduced to workflows that ensure quality and predictability as well as common project methodologies and approaches.
	45	+\\By the end of this course, students will be able to:

	47	+* Develop an implementation plan and make recommendations for production workflow in response to Open Source Software case studies.
	48	+* Apply iterative and incremental methodologies to given case studies.
	49	+* Differentiate and critique the support, management, and governance of different types of distributed open source communities.
	50	+* Describe and assess infrastructure frequently used to support workflows designed to ensure product reliability and project integrity.
	51	+* Determine and apply applicable project management methodologies that lend themselves to decentralized development and Open Source values.
