" summary

Rackspace donates its cloud code — an object store plus a compute provisioning system that already powers 100,000 customers — to launch OpenStack, released under Apache 2 license so anyone can run or compete with it. NASA contributes Nebula and a fabric controller. Development is public on Launchpad, biannual design summits already draw 100+ contributors, and the first bug is reported and fixed within 20 minutes, showing rapid community-driven iteration.
