I guess it goes back to 'scratching an itch' when it comes to hobby contributions to open source. It's easy to contribute to something that solves one's own problems - and if the maintainer abandons it, someone else can fork and maintain it to fulfill their need. But for projects set up by corporations, geared towards large scale problems, it would be difficult to keep them alive by random drive-by contributions from individual contributors. Maybe what might save Servo is a company seeing a business opportunity by using it, like what happened with Firefox OS, or perhaps being adopted as something like a research project at a University department.
