“…Moreover, the open source approach draws upon globally distributed collaborative communities bringing together dedicated developers and users who share their knowledge to better meet the expectations of the latter (Aksulu & Wade, 2010;Fitzgerald, 2006;Lee & Davis, 2003). Indeed, the open source development process allows any individual to propose improvements to the software, and even to participate in their development (Janamanchi et al, 2009). This is usually done through online forums and increasingly through small service enterprises bridging users and developers in open source communities (Fitzgerald, 2006).…”

“…Third, the development process of computerized systems by open source communities involves a "free, independent, and indiscriminate redistribution of software, source code and reuse licenses" (Aksulu & Wade, 2010, p. 577). This process allows anyone to propose improvements to the systems, and even to participate in their development (Janamanchi et al, 2009). Similarly, health co-ops are autonomous associations that are user-owned, usercontrolled and user-benefited (Dunn, 1988;Zeuli & Cropp, 2009).…”

“…This type of software is very popular due to its many advantages, since it promises to accelerate the diffusion of Information Technologies (IT) solutions in healthcare. Thereby, it can contribute to reduced development costs [1,2].…”

“…One the other hand, the choice of a free license software in health and medical informatics is important because it determines the user's rights and can influence the developers' willingness to participate in a project, the quality of the product, and the willingness of users to adopt certain applications [1,2].…”
