Perhaps a 180? :-)

  My reaction exactly, but it's actually a joke. > do a 360 and moonwalk away

    It made me think of this Jason Kidd quote: "We're going to turn this team around 360 degrees"

  To be clear for non-Michael-Jackson-fans: 360 + moonwalk works out the same (by sliding away backwards). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moonwalk_%28dance%29 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moonwalk_%28dance%29 >moves backwards while seemingly walking forwards It's actually a near-perfect analogy here, where actions speak louder than words re: Microsoft's commitment to maintaining adaptations of existing open source projects. I think the example provided is enough to trigger a careful analysis before jumping in, and I would love to see counter-examples to help balance the evaluation. (Please note: very specifically requesting counter-examples of Microsoft-official, intended for production, open source repositories demonstrating long-term maintenance of tweaks of/dependencies on established open source projects that for whatever reason were never up-streamed.)

    In the case of Microsoft specifically it's a silly meme that started due to the Xbox 360. 'Why do they call it the Xbox 360? Because when you see it you do a 360 and walk away.'

  No, 360 is right: https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/2cwh0m/can_someone_explain_this_360_degree_turn_then/ https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/2cwh0m/can_so...
