Open source software(OSS), which is distributed with source code for free and anyone can redistribute and modify without permission of licensor is one of the most prominent phenomenon in the software industry. Therefore, more and more developers participate in OSS Internet communities and produce OSS . These communities are generally complex adaptive network. This paper analyzes the topological properties of KLDP site which is one of the largest OSS development communities in Korea. We find that the number of links is small but the network has some characteristics that can often be observed in complex network such as power law. We also analyze the relationship between the topological properties of software project and its own attributes and then find that a lot of attributes are homogeneous among the projects which are linked directly. Other topological analysis such as clustering coefficient and homophily phenomenon are also presented.
