Yahoo API's and developer network

I aways believed Sun Microsystems gave maximum benefit to the computing world. They developed a lot of technology and made it Open source. Now since Sun is under grip of Oracle, who should take its place? I believe Yahoo is slowly replacing Sun's footprint of donating technology to the world. I came across the developer network of Yahoo!. I can see most of their works are now Open source and very powerful. Take the case of YUI3. Its a marvellous library and framework for web developers. Just listing some of the best Yahoo Developer Tools YUI - User interface, Javascript and CSS library framework Mojito - Free Javascript MVC framework Placefiner - An excellent tool YQL - Yahoo Query language. A great console as well YSlow - Firefox add-on if you are site developer There were other quite few great ones Yahoo! answers was great, but got eclipsed by stackoverflow.
