title: Supporting data for "A Grounded Theory of Community Package Maintenance Organizations"

description: This dataset contains the <em>public</em> documents (CPMO documentation, public discussions, etc.) that we have coded for the purpose of generating our grounded theory of CPMOs. As an overview, a mindmap is provided (<code>cpmo.mm</code>) that relates the categories used in the theory presented in the article to the quotes extracted from the documents. Software The documents can be opened with LibreOffice (tested version: 7.3.7.2). The mindmap can be opened with Freeplane (tested version: 1.19.14). To ease viewing the mindmap, SVG and HTML exports are provided as well. License The data generated by the authors is licensed under CC-BY 4.0. Note that the license does not apply to the coded documents, which are the property of their respective authors. Detailed contents The <code>initial-codes/</code> folder contains documents with annotations from the initial coding phase. The <code>focused-codes/</code> folder contains documents with annotations from the focused coding phase. Documents are named using the following convention: <pre><code>[documentidentifier]-[tz|jrf|common].fodt<br> </code></pre> Documents marked as <code>tz</code> were coded by the first author. Documents marked as <code>jrf</code> were coded by the second author. Documents marked as <code>common</code> were obtained collaboratively after discussing the codes from one of the authors or comparing the codes from both authors. When it exists, the <code>common</code> version is the one that was refined throughout the study and used to generate the theory in the paper. The available documents are the following: Documentation <pre><code>dlang-discussions-README<br> <br> elm-community-manifesto<br> <br> fluttercommunity-community<br> fluttercommunity-style-guide<br> fluttercommunity-transfer-guide<br> <br> meteor-community-packages-organization<br> meteor-community-transfer-template<br> <br> sous-chefs-becoming-member<br> sous-chefs-departure<br> sous-chefs-forking<br> sous-chefs-licensing<br> sous-chefs-managing-scale<br> sous-chefs-meta-README<br> sous-chefs-pull-based<br> sous-chefs-transferring<br> <br> trac-hacks-dev-guide<br> trac-hacks-plugins<br> <br> voxpupuli-about<br> voxpupuli-deprecated-modules<br> voxpupuli-homepage<br> voxpupuli-migrating<br> voxpupuli-plumbing-governance<br> voxpupuli-speedtrain-talk<br> </code></pre> Discussions <pre><code>dlang-d2sqlite3-adoption<br> dlang-decimal-adoption<br> dlang-dfuse-adoption<br> dlang-first-steps-discussion<br> dlang-guidelines-discussion<br> dlang-money-adoption<br> dlang-setup-dlang-adoption<br> dlang-tools-creation<br> <br> elm-datepicker-deprecation<br> elm-dict-extra-adoption<br> elm-html-test-runner-deprecation<br> elm-random-extra-adoption<br> elm-ratio-adoption<br> elm-string-extra-creation<br> elm-task-extra-adoption<br> elm-test-deprecation<br> elm-typed-svg-adoption<br> elm-webpack-loader-maintainer-change<br> <br> meteor-community-kickoff-discussion<br> meteor-community-test-discussion<br> <br> sous-chefs-creation-announcement<br> </code></pre> Present in the dataset but not used in the article <pre><code>fluttercommunity-backdrop-changelog<br> fluttercommunity-launcher_icons-changelog<br> </code></pre> Used in the article but removed from the dataset The following documents (as well as the audio recordings from the interviews) are excluded from the dataset: <pre><code>dlang-sebastian-wilzbach-interview<br> elm-community-ryan-rempel-interview<br> </code></pre> They can be made available to researchers who need them for their research after requesting permission from each of the interviewees.
