Amazon doesn't contribute much to the open source community. Most of their contributions happened around the XEN project which they use to power EC2.

Even there though, isn't it mostly bug fixes? Has Amazon contributed any major functionality back? They do a ton of custom stuff and I don't really see any of that showing up like you do with say, Google and cgroups.
