Abstract

The current practice of Open Source Software (OSS) evolves around sharing the source codes. However, without a prudent methodology in OSS software development, OSS users seldom participate in software development and prefer just to be end-users. To identify and analyze the current usage and acceptance of OSS , a survey was conducted among selected OSS developers in Malaysia. The results, analyzed using SPSS and Rasch method, are quite unexpected, with many OSS developers still not fully using OSS tools in SDLC stages. This paper shall also propose a Knowledge Management System (KMS) Framework for sharing software development using OSS to enable Community-of-Practice to share software development using OSS knowledge.
