With there being so much talk how Microsoft is reformed/reforming, I do not really see the change at all. Microsoft always was about developers and getting them into their ecosystem and I do not think this is evil. It's business. People act like the Open Source strategy is so much different from the Ballmer days but is it really? From a business perspective they tried to throw rocks into the paths of Open Source as a thing, and it did not work. It just alienated more developers. Logical conclusion is to blend in. And so they did. Apart from that, with Open Source being kind of a de facto default for the past decade, it just becomes so much harder to find engineers who would work at a company not respecting the ideas behind Open Source development. Microsoft is now sitting at the focal point for the majority of Open Source efforts. And it has a kill switch in its' hands. The reformed Microsoft is the old Microsoft. It just learned a few tricks from the Open Source community.
