Maybe in the press it does, but on the ground it does not. Only a small
fraction of the projects on Sourceforge or announced at Freshmeat are
developed in bazaar fashion. (Note that in TCATB, Eric uses "cathedral"
to refer to a certain kind of open source software, not to closed source
software.)
The small one-person efforts may be more huts than cathedrals, but that
does not mean they are developed by an unconventional development model.

The known is finite, the unknown infinite; intellectually we stand
on an islet in the midst of an illimitable ocean of inexplicability.
Our business in every generation is to reclaim a little more land,
to add something to the extent and the solidity of our possessions.
