    Code doesn’t need to be managed the same way in a company as it does in an open-source project.

    Open-source projects are usually longer lived more maintainable, more stable, and more useful than any closed source code I’ve ever worked on for a company. Partially because they’re not under contract deadlines which create pressure to “deliver value” by a certain date, but still. Might be helpful for companies to consider adopting practices the open-source community has shown to work, rather than inventing their own.
