IBM not a hero with Project Zero
Have you seen this recently released incubator project from IBM? Project Zero is a development framework for creating dynamic Web applications and services. It makes use of juicy technologies such as REST, ATOM, JSON, XML, AJAX, Groovy and PHP. Mmm, all that Web 2.0 goodness.
Unfortunately, Project Zero is not open-source but rather a "community driven commercial development" project. That sort of smells a lot like "how to work for free without getting the benefits of open-source" to me, but what do I know?
For more information, visit the website below for documentation, tutorials, forums, blogs and other information.

Project Zero
"Project Zero is about agile development of the next generation of dynamic Web applications. Project Zero introduces a simple environment for creating, assembling and executing applications based on popular Web technologies. The Project Zero environment includes a scripting runtime for Groovy and PHP with application programming interfaces optimized for producing REST-style services, integration mash-ups and rich Web interfaces."

IBM tries to engage customers early in the development process
IBM is a dichotomous organization. They contribute to more open source than you know, encouraging employees to work outside of the IBM identities, yet, at the same time, the lion share of the business is traditional commercial, closed, proprietary software.
The majority of the industry is reading this as a step backwards from the benefits of open source. However, I see this as a step forward from closed, proprietary software.
To paraphrase the original post...
"Fortunately, Project Zero is not closed and proprietary but rather a 'community drive commercial development' project. That sort of smells a lot like 'how to engage with customers early to ensure they are getting the benefits of an open community' to me, but what do I know?"
