"...got enough going"... Influential on this little essay was OSCON 2015, just finished. The big takeaway for me was big enterprises have finally bought in to the open source paradigm not just as an inventory of free tools but as a style of working that produces results. Management is retraining to make the internal development environment look almost the same as the public open source development world (same tools, same techniques, same small "two pizza teams" with committed committers). Instituting these practices, including sharing and maintaining one or more open source projects, as a way of throwing one's hat in the ring, is not just a way of improving inhouse productivity but of way attracting a productive brand of geek, the kind used to working with these tools to begin with. So we had Walmart Labs (first time), standardizing on Node.js + a lot of noSQL (e.g. Cassandra and Mongo), and PayPal (again), which is all about Apache Inside (talking the whole ecosystem of Apache Foundation projects, a lot of them ever more mission critical within the enterprise). PayPal calls in "InnerSource" i.e. using Open Source internally.
