That's not true.

For example, SharpDevelop started as a Windows-only C#, VisualStudio clone.
Someone took that codebase, ported it to linux and MonoDevelop was born. 
A Crossplatform C# (and now D) IDE.

That's how Open Source works. Someone starts a poject, not what others 
want or need, but rather what the starter of the project want to code on!
