I have yet to find someone at Microsoft that views Open Source as "the enemy".
- bootload 17y ago"... I have yet to find someone at Microsoft that views Open Source as 'the enemy'. ..." Maybe all the players have left MS now? But I remember Bill didn't like open source ~ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Letter_to_Hobbyists http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Letter_to_Hobbyists James Allchin wasn't that keen ~ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Allchin#Controversies http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Allchin#Controversies neither was Paul Maritz ~ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Maritz http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Maritz and Vinod Valloppillil wrote the book ~ http://www.vinod.com/blog/NavLinks/FAQ.html http://www.vinod.com/blog/NavLinks/FAQ.html You can get a better view of these MS players reading through the Halloween documents at http://www.catb.org/~esr/halloween/ http://www.catb.org/~esr/halloween/ None of that matters much as it once did. MS is spent as a force, at least in the eyes of developers. There are bigger problems.
