In this paper, we identify a range of measures that can be used to assess the success of Open Source Software (OSS) projects. We identify measures based on a review of the literature, a consideration of the OSS development process and an analysis of the opinions of OSS developers. For each measure, we provide examples of how they might be used in a study of OSS development. %B Proceedings of the 24th International Conference on Information Systems (ICIS) %C Seattle, WA, December %G eng %> https://floss.syr.edu/sites/crowston.syr.edu/files/icis2003success.pdf
