One of the challenges that free and open-source projects face is the impact of governance on their community members: while FOSS licenses assure access to source code, that doesn't guarantee a successful project. A governance model can help ensure that the project is run in a professional, disciplined, and equitable manner. Good governance lets the community engage in discourse and provides a transparent mechanism for arbitration in the hopefully rare circumstances in which it is necessary.
Uno de los desafíos que enfrentan los proyectos de  free y open-source es el impacto de la governance en los miembros de sus comunidades: mientras que las licencias FOSS aseguran el acceso al codigo, esto no garantiza un proyecto exito. Un modelo de governance puede ayudar a asegurar que el proyecto sea manejado de una manera profesional, diciplinada y equitativa. Una buena  governance deja a la comunidad involucrarse en el discurso
y provee un mecanismo transparente de arbitramento  en las (esperamos) raras circunstancias sen las cuales esto sea necesario.  


Some attributes that are necessary for good governance include: meritocracy, transparency of process, open access to anyone who has demonstrated the skills to contribute, and a means to ensure a balance of control so that no one special interest wrests control of either the discourse or the decision-making.  
Algunos atributos que son importantes para una buena governance incluyen: meritocracia, transparencia de, acceso abierto a cualquiera que haya demostrado las habilidades para contribuir y medios para asegurar balance en el control de el discurso o la toma de decisiones.
