摘要
Using data from in-depth interviews and Delphi method on Open Source Software (OSS) contributors, this study uses a social constructivist and feminist perspective model to investigate the gender's contribution in OSS innovation process. The results show that both male and female contributors have their preferences in term of roles and contributions in OSS. The type of contributions varies from technical or non-technical aspects of OSS process. This paper provides understanding of how the participation and contribution of gender in OSS will help in attracting and retaining them in OSS innovation process.
