I am working as a moonlight freelancer and starting my own software business while working full time and managing my family (though no kids currently which makes managing family a bit easier). This isn't the same as OSS but it is the same principals. When I have free time I work on what I can get done. I have a 3 hour daily commute which is on the train so I have about 2.5 hours of work I can get done a day. Then there are times when the wife and I are just watching TV that I can work. Basically, I get my side work done whenever I have free time. I think OSS isn't going to be like your 9-5 dev work where you are able to sit down and code and pump out features. It is going to take more time because you aren't going to be working on it every night, for the most part.
