Skunkworks are probably the corporate version of open source. They work well.

  Quite true, they tend to be small though. I'm imagining large groups of programmers simply tackling projects as they saw fit within a code base. I'm not sure normal employment is quite up to the task - maybe if you paid people per feature or spec'd bits out topcoder style.

    Here's an idea... let's try paying them by the line of code or number of bugs fixed. Oh wait, maybe that isn't such a good idea.
