The implications of CCP open-sourcing part of their tech are fascinating. They may maintain ownership over the game's assets and fundamental IP, but releasing their development platform might spur innovation. The technology allowed independent developers and modders to build new tools, features, and spin-off games. A more involved and innovative community may lengthen Eve Online's lifetime. However, open-source contribution management and quality control may be difficult. What do you think this means for MMOs?

Personally, I was quite pleased to play Vanguard; being able to influence EVE while playing an FPS game is great. I felt it was a fascinating read. And I'm looking forward to what Eve has in store next. The same was done once Star Wars Galaxies was shut down. You can still play it through SWGEmu, SWG Legends, and a variety of other platforms.
