This paper presents results from research into open source projects
from a software engineering perspective. The research methodology employed
relies on public data retrieved from the CVS repository of the GNOME project and
relevant discussion groups. This methodology is described, and results concern-
ing the special characteristics of open source software development are given.
These data are used for a first approach to estimating the total effort to be
expended.
