Yes it does. Karl Fogel describes it very well in his book
(http://producingoss.com). I strongly recommend it to project leaders
and developers who maintain just-opened and want to get dirty with
principles of the FOSS world.

One important point that Fogel makes that I think is worth noting here
is that the number-one sine-qua-non of *any* potentially successful
software project is *shipping working code*.

It's also a good idea to release early and often.
There is a temptation to bring a code with all possible issues smoothed away, but it defers release what might be bad if counted in months.
