<title>Checklist For Successful Open-Source Projects</title>
<nowiki>

<p>This checklist is loosely derived from Tom "Spot" Callaway's Fail Score
blog post <a href="http://spot.livejournal.com/308370.html">
http://spot.livejournal.com/308370.html</a> (see also
<a href="http://www.theopensourceway.org/book/The_Open_Source_Way-How_to_tell_if_a_FLOSS_project_is_doomed_to_FAIL.html">[1]</a> and
<a href="https://www.theopensourceway.org/wiki/How_to_tell_if_a_FLOSS_project_is_doomed_to_FAIL">[2]</a>).
Tom's original post assigned point scores to the various elements and
by adding together the individual points, the reader is supposed to be able
to judge the likelihood that the project will fail.
The point scores, and the items on the list, clearly reflect Tom's
biases and are not necessarily those of the larger open-source community.
Nevertheless, the policy of the Fossil shall be to strive for a perfect
score.</p>
