Abstract :
As commercial interest in open-source software development grows, an apparent conflict between the cultures of open source and capitalism threatens to derail the movement´s momentum. In fact, the character and operation of both are shaped at many levels by an important, shared ethos: the value of individual freedom. The paper discusses the value of open-source development and considers open-source hacking
