Executive Director, Eclipse Foundation

 

 

  1. Great technology
  2. Broad adoption
  3. Architecture of participation
  4. Being hijacked by a fanatical community

 

 

Keypoints

 

  • You need a cathedral to enable the bazaar
  • Low barriers to entry
  • New addons are first class citizens, not second class

 

The Eclipse Experience

 

  • Open extensible architecture
  • Built out of layers and plugins
  • Everything is a plugin both from the cathedral and the bazaar

 

Open Source Community that wants to have commercial adoption

 

  • Only project that meets it's dates religiously
  • Quality matters
  • Shipping 10 different projects on the same day
    • 10 million lines of code
    • 25 corporate interests
    • 30 locations
    • all shipping a suite of tools, applications and platforms
  • Planning council getting together and deciding that this mass release would be worth coordinating
