so apperantly: Oracle mostly inherited the open source from Sun Microsystems acquisition(but they stopped OpenSolaris and there was a lawsuit about Google using Java in Android), Microsoft starting somewhat kinda supportive of open source few years later (especially the Github acquisition ) and IBM only open sources a few things.
Yeah and even then, no one trusted Oracle with it. There’s a reason you don’t hear OpenOffice.org anymore, all the devs left to make LibreOffice once Oracle got their grubby hands on it.
Huh! Never knew that. Apache is definitely better than Oracle, but since it was originally held by Sun and then acquired by Oracle, I’m not surprised all the devs fled.
