  Eclipse is one of the go-to places now for companies like this: - They moved the foundation to Europe recently - They have dedicated capacity to entertain relationships to commercial partners - The reward structure for Eclipse membership is corporate-friendly (control+exposure) It's a way to "do open source" that companies find easy to do because of the company-friendly interface and materials, but doesn't necessarily indicate much change to culture or way of working.
