In the previous sections, we have examined both free software projects and the management of user communities. Both sections describe the key aspects of free software production from the point of view of project management.
To complete the module, this section will go into further detail on many of the ideas and proposals described above before moving on to study a specific case of a company based on free software.

In this section, we will study the case of Openbravo, S.L.
