Eclipse Community Survey: Good News, Bad News

,----[ Quote ]
| That's really significant, because for many free 
| software applications, historically people have 
| tended to develop on Windows, and then deploy on 
| GNU/Linux. If the developers are moving to 
| GNU/Linux on the desktop â as this survey suggests 
| - maybe the tide is beginning to turn there, at 
| least among that particular community (well, it's a 
| start...).

Eclipse users developing on Linux, considering cloud

,----[ Quote ]
| The primary takeaway from the results is the shift 
| in how engineers are choosing to develop and 
| deploy. Linux, especially Ubuntu, has taken market 
| share from Windows on an ongoing basis, and is now 
| used by just shy of one third of respondents as 
| their developer desktop, up from 20 percent in 
| 2007.

Eclipse Community Survey shows good growth for Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| In 2007, 20% of users said that Linux was their 
| development operating system, but by 2010, that had 
| increased to 33%, with Windows dropping from 74% to 
| 58% in share. Linux continues to be the most 
| popular deployment platform for Eclipse developers 
| with 46% saying it is their primary target 
| platform.

Eclipse Study Shows Major Gains for Linux Among Developers

,----[ Quote ]
| The confidence and comfort associated with 
| developing on Linux, reflected in the growing 
| number of developers who say they prefer the OS to 
| alternatives, are also leading indicators of 
| Linux's adoption in the enterprise. Linux use has 
| been growing among enterprise users for a decade, 
| but we're at a proverbial tipping point. The 
| collision of technology maturity, a new generation 
| of developers and IT professionals, and a new 
| economic reality are putting Linux in a position to 
| experience faster growth than other OSes in the 
| enterprise.
