[edit] How communication puts the Open in Open Source
If your break down the phrase "Open Source", it's obvious that the value lies in being "Open": Source is just source unless people know about it, are using it, and are building a community around it.
Communication enables Community. It's necessary to shout about your work if you want people to join you, help you, and work with you; effective communication is one of the largest and most time-consuming tasks in open source.
