Hi list!

I was just pointed to the book

 Sowe, Sulayman K., Ioannis Stamelos & Ioannis Samoladas (eds.),
 2007, Emerging Free and Open Source Software practices, IGI
 Publishing, USA

Some Google results:

 Project infrastructure and software repositories are now widely
 available at low cost with easy extraction, providing a foundational
 base to conduct detailed cyber-archeology at a scale not open to
 researchers before. Emerging Free and Open Source Software Practices
 provides a collection of empirical research acting as a focal point
 to the status of these repositories and infrastructures along with
 the F/OSS project. Emerging Free and Open Source Software Practices
 presents a framework and state-of-the-art references on F/OSS
 projects, reporting on past and on-going case studies of projects
 covering a wide range of F/OSS applications and domains. This book
 postulates trends in the evolution of software practices and
 solutions to the challenges ubiquitous nature free and open source
 software provides.

The book seems also to be on Google Books:

Sounds interesting. Anyone read the book?
