In this position paper, after examining some success factors, we discuss potential limits on the replicability and portability of OSS engineering processes. Based on this analysis, we propose a research agenda to better understand the current nature of the processes and thus the strengths and the limitations. %B Proceedings of the 2nd ICSE Workshop on Open Source %> https://flosshub.org/sites/flosshub.org/files/CrowstonScozzi.pdf
