Microsoft employs 90,000 people. Do you honestly expect all of them to be in sync at all times? Besides, supporting third-party technologies on Azure and reimplementing open-source programming languages on top of the .NET framework seem tenuously related at best. That's actually one of the advantages of having a corporate agenda in my mind: things that are unlikely to gain traction with developers can be cut with impunity. It prevents fracturing and slowing down communities, all too common in the open-source world (think of the many, many variants of Lisp, or the recent explosion of LanguageX-to-javascript compilers).
