  abstract      = {Open source software (OSS) is an emerging discipline of business research.  However most of the research is concentrated in few areas such as project management within virtual communities, the ethical and legal ramifications of the OSS phenomenon, models of user involvement in OSS projects, and the economics of OSS. Other critical areas have been so far only tangentially investigated.  The viability of OSS business models, the impact of OSS on the software industry structure and the new competitive game, the OSS-based national IT strategies and the role of governments and other lobbying groups in promoting or combating OSS are examples of issues that have been only anecdotally accounted for by non-research oriented literature.  This short paper tries to identify critical issues that OSS research ought to tackle by briefly defining them and indicating potential avenues of research.}
