In this paper, we show how information available in CVS repositories can be used to study the structure of the modules in a project when they are related by the people working in them, and how techniques taken from the social networks fields can be used to highlight the characteristics of that structure. As a case example, we also show some results of applying this methodology to the Apache project in several points in time. Among other facts, it is shown how the project evolves and is self-structuring, with developer communities of modules corresponding to semantically related families of modules. %B Proceedings of the 4th ICSE Workshop on Open Source %P 44-48 %> https://flosshub.org/sites/flosshub.org/files/gonzalezBarahona44-48.pdf
