Instead, this paper seeks to identify social and technological affordances of new feature request systems and their potential to support open innovation through integration of peripheral community members{\textquoteright} ideas for advancing the software. Initial findings from the first of a planned study of multiple open source software communities are presented to identify attributes of effective participation architectures.}, url = {http://www.opensym.org/os2015/proceedings-files/p202-purcell.pdf}, attachments = {https://flosshub.org/sites/flosshub.org/files/p202-purcell.pdf}, author = {Michelle W.
