  $40 million donation of software to open source community 

  IBM is donating $40 million of software to a new independent open-source community.

  The Java-based open source software -- code-named Eclipse -- will enable developers
  to use software tools from multiple suppliers together, allowing developers to integrate
  business processes used to create e-business applications, such as those for Web services.

This is an open source project ... hardly the stuff of Mickeysoft World :)


cheers
