I'm just scratching my head trying to figure out why the Eclipse Foundation

like a reaction to Jenkins. p
I'd say: because Oracle wanted to involve a reputable and wide Java FLOSS organization. Apache Software Foundation probably is not in the best relationship with Oracle because of the Harmony thing... So, what's another choice? Too bad there's not a NetBeans Foundation...
