On Eclipse
EclipseZone上有一篇文章,讲的是作者关于Eclipse作为一个ecosystem的一些见解:
http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/t64080.rhtml比较有意思的一个比喻是这样说的:
"IBM has effectively created a digital snowball that is rolling down a
mountain, and there are all these other snowballs that want to roll
down the mountain too. They are certainly welcome to start rolling on
their own, but they will never get as big or as fast as the IBM
(Eclipse) snowball because it started at the top of the mountain. So
instead the other snowballs just roll themselves into the big IBM
snowball. They won't effect the ultimate path of the big snowball very
much, but they can change it just enough to meet their needs which is
what they wanted AND what IBM wanted too."
