  "Canonical, Upgrading GNOME Bugzilla, and Commercial Sponsorship"
   by Sumana Harihareswara

It's an article about how the GNOME Foundation and Canonical worked
together to upgrade GNOME's Bugzilla and give it APIs so Launchpad could
talk to it (so Ubuntu can track GNOME bugs easily without GNOME
developers having to change their working habits).  She tells the story
in some technical detail, but also in social/business detail -- I found
it a great read, even already knowing the basic outlines from before.

Enjoy!
