IBM Jazz Edges Closer To Open Source

Posted by kdawson on from the collaboration-wants-to-be-free dept.

hhavensteincw writes "IBM is molding its Jazz technology, which helps software development teams collaborate, in the image of its popular Eclipse open source community. IBM said that today's move to open access to its Jazz.net portal to anyone to peruse its code, access bug lists, etc. puts it on the path to completely open-source the Jazz technology."

    This is what I love about Slashdot.

    People are lazy and don't read the article (hey, this is Slashdot - that's how it has always been).

    People are not too lazy to post "what the fuck is this about?" even though they don't read it.

    Other people complain about people not reading the article.

    Those same people then copy and paste or explain what it is, while complaining that people are too lazy to read the article.

    Then, OTHER people mod-up the people who are complaining about and enabling the lazy people to continue being more lazy by posting the info directly in a post for them.

    That's why this is home. :)
