I frankly think os projects tend to be better because the developers on os projects are generally better and more interested then developers in a company.

Hi, folks! I currently plan an article on Open Source Software development. What I would like from you are voices about my central question: Why does the loose development process of OS work? Or more in detail: Why are almost all commercial projects organized as a strict hierarchy while most OS projects work with a loose organisation or even none at all. Additionally, roles are always switched on demand. This is something that would never be done in a classically organized project. What do you think? Opinions? Thoughts? Am I even on the wrong track? Thanks in advance!
