Well that's true. But, I am talking about interesting projects like Apache Kafka, Spark or many other Big Data tools. Also many languages born in JVM like Clojure, Kotlin or Scala. None of them came from oracle but in .NET all the successful languages came from Microsoft. Mostly happens because many people don't like Microsoft. That's why you don't see lots of startups using .NET

Hey Jon,

Why not move .net to Linux Foundation in a similar deal to Node.js? I think .NET is really interesting technology but let's be honest most innovation happen over JVM. Moving to Linux Foundation would create a lot of trust for people who are not fond of Microsoft.
