Open source collaboration requires open-mindedness and team players since every individual with varying personalities, work experience and attitude are involved.

People can collaborate better to open source project using the right collaboration and project management tools. Organizing meetings daily or weekly, asking questions, networking with coworkers, making suggestions, asking for feedbacks and guidance, sharing knowledge and assigning roles to everyone as a group or individually also ensures efficient collaboration.
