Agreed - a concern for me as well.
AWS has enough scale to have its own gravity and will likely run development forward regardless of .org, it would be GREAT if .org could actively work to integrate where possible the open source options here.
I remember some early efforts of google to contribute wakelocks and other features to the linux kernel - so annoying when that was shot down and created a pretty significant split, and the commercial entity wasn't going to hold off on wakelocks because a subsystem maintainer didn't like it - so android starting going off into its own land.
Wakelocks also ended up proving a reasonable power management approach (despite complaints they didn't use existing linux mechanisms etc).
There was a big push ultimately to get wakelocks into mainline and drive some convergence.
