3. Assessment on free / open source software Accountability by design: source code ready for inspection Open development: development process ready for inspection Assesment doesn’t need to rely on black boxes: absence of information should cause suspicion Assesment by third parties is possible: methodologies are needed A part of the assement can be automated: data sources with detailed, reliable information Blondelle, Baldassari, Izquierdo, Gonzalez-Barahona (Eclipse Foundation, SQuORING Technologies, Bitergia) Polarsys Maturity Model Polarsys WG Meeting 3 / 13
4. Aims of the model Taking advantage of open source software & open development: Uses publicly available information Automates the process as much as possible Is transparent itself (model, methodology, software) Is flexible, can be adapted, benchmarked Can be used to: assess on maturity for potential users improve maturity aspects by projects themselves Blondelle, Baldassari, Izquierdo, Gonzalez-Barahona (Eclipse Foundation, SQuORING Technologies, Bitergia) Polarsys Maturity Model Polarsys WG Meeting 4 / 13
5. The model as a tool for human experts The model is intended to be: not better than an evaluation by an expert as much unbiased as possible as much flexible as possible (different targets) a good tool / complement for experts a help for developers and users Blondelle, Baldassari, Izquierdo, Gonzalez-Barahona (Eclipse Foundation, SQuORING Technologies, Bitergia) Polarsys Maturity Model Polarsys WG Meeting 5 / 13
6. Objectives Cost-effective: easy to setup and use. Flexible: can be enhanced with new data or quality requirements. Not just evaluation: opportunities for understanding and guidance. Blondelle, Baldassari, Izquierdo, Gonzalez-Barahona (Eclipse Foundation, SQuORING Technologies, Bitergia) Polarsys Maturity Model Polarsys WG Meeting 6 / 13
7. Three main dimensions Ecosystem: communities, usage, feedback Process: predictable outputs, management of KPIs Product: good practices, maintainability, reliability Blondelle, Baldassari, Izquierdo, Gonzalez-Barahona (Eclipse Foundation, SQuORING Technologies, Bitergia) Polarsys Maturity Model Polarsys WG Meeting 7 / 13

9. Ecosystem Activity Diversity Responsiveness Support Usage User feedback Blondelle, Baldassari, Izquierdo, Gonzalez-Barahona (Eclipse Foundation, SQuORING Technologies, Bitergia) Polarsys Maturity Model Polarsys WG Meeting 9 / 13
10. Process Configuration Management Change Management Planning Management Test Management Blondelle, Baldassari, Izquierdo, Gonzalez-Barahona (Eclipse Foundation, SQuORING Technologies, Bitergia) Polarsys Maturity Model Polarsys WG Meeting 10 / 13
11. Product Analysability Changeability Reliability Reusability Blondelle, Baldassari, Izquierdo, Gonzalez-Barahona (Eclipse Foundation, SQuORING Technologies, Bitergia) Polarsys Maturity Model Polarsys WG Meeting 11 / 13
12. The final result For each attribute, find parameters to characterize it Combination of thresholds to decide “levels of maturity by attribute” Aggregate to decide “maturity by dimension” Summarise to produce a final assesment Blondelle, Baldassari, Izquierdo, Gonzalez-Barahona (Eclipse Foundation, SQuORING Technologies, Bitergia) Polarsys Maturity Model Polarsys WG Meeting 12 / 13
13. Discussion Please comment on: Specific attributes: add / remove / change them? Other dimensions of maturity? What to do when information is not available? Any other issue that bothers you...
