Honestly, I don't know if that is a good idea. At least the part where he talks about open source boosting contributions, which is definitely not the case! Yes, open source can help building a community of developers, but it isn't guaranteed to. Most people won't bother to contribute their changes back upstream, or make changes in the first case. Filing bug reports is, in most cases, easier, so that's what happens. You also shouldn't forget about the fact that you need to know the code base you are working on before you can do changes, and if it's a larger code base, people will most likely not dare to touch it (see also; GCC. Lot's of old die hard old school guys working on it since years, but essentially zero contributions from newer guys because the code base is a mess and there is more or less no documentation).
