Abstract
This study focuses on the motivation factors driving open source software developers in Japan. After summarizing the current research trends and economic theories, the authors introduce the results of questionnaire surveys conducted in Japan in 2009, and then discuss the process in which an “Gift Economy” is embedded into “Exchange Economy”. The study further analyzes “Regionality” of motivation factors of developers by dividing the survey respondents into metropolitan and other areas.
