A programmer (from source code). May probably be found as open sourceror (one working with open source specifically) but, I think, not usually alone. Searching finds some irrelevancies (relating to a Terry Pratchett novel etc.) and maybe the name of a specific software program. Equinox 07:55, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

sourcerer has now been added as an alt form, but with two additional senses! Equinox 09:33, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I added one cite for "open sourceror" - I can easily add two more if that is what we are looking for, but I cannot find this term used on its own, except as the name of a specific disassembler. Kiwima (talk) 19:39, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
So a move to open sourceror may be needed. Equinox 19:41, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I would think so, although I did manage to find one quote that talked about a "free sourcerer". Kiwima (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

RFV-resolved. Moved to open sourceror. Kiwima (talk) 03:32, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
