In this paper, a longitudinal field study approach is used to explore how Hewlett-Packard (HP) molded open source software development (OSSD) into a proprietary software development approach called {\textquotedblleft}Progressive Open Source{\textquotedblright} (POS). With the help of actornetwork theory, we understand this as a process of translation and find that some central characteristics of OSSD where lost in the translation into POS while other characteristics were gained. }, issn = {978-0-387-09683-4}, doi = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-09684-1_8}, attachments = {https://flosshub.org/sites/flosshub.org/files/Lost\%20\%26\%20Gained\%20in\%20Translation.pdf}, author = {Melian, Catharina and M{\"a}hring, Magnus} }
