This is something we studied in last year's report. Based on a survey similar to the one described in Chapter 4 we found that a mix of features measuring participation in the open source community was associated with positive security outcomes. It makes sense that if you follow the projects you're using closely then you would be more aware of security advisories and fixes for those projects. My favorite part was the term we used for this mix of features: Open Source Enlightenment :-)
