Abstract

This article presents the development of a model for deploying software processes within the context of free and open-source software FLOSS communities, characterized by the voluntary participation of people geographically distributed in different places and with diverse profiles and interests in a software development project. The Delphi method validated the model, in which 15 people interested in FLOSS communities participated. It was found that the model promotes communication and motivation of the participants in more than 80% and favors the participation of new community members, according to the answers given by the participants. The communication and motivation skills of the members of a FLOSS community are fundamental for the proper development of free software construction projects.
