It really depends what that the “project leader” company wishes to get from being involved in an open source project. If it is truly committed to building the community, it will succeed. If it’s just an effort to bring some external workforce to the company’s project, it won’t.

In addition to that, code and API quality is also an important issue. If a company has adopted good programming practices it will be easier for the community to contribute.
