Eric Raymond: Open Source IS agile programming!

In this article Eric Raymond, having read "Refactoring" by Martin Fowler, sees huge similarities between the school of agile programming and what hackers have been doing in the open source community for decades.

"The open-source movement and agile programming may be converging. While reading Martin Fowler's excellent book "Refactoring", I realized development by refactoring is a sharp description of the normal style of open-source hackers. In this essay (which Martin Fowler and Kent Beck and I discussed in draft) I explore the connection further."
