Eh...integrating yes, support? And effectively declaring themselves in charge of MIDI specs, hmmm ("...no longer under NDA etc").
- lockhouse 3y agoThey own this one website that hosts a few open source projects for free… https://github.com/ https://github.com/ Maybe you’ve heard of it. In all seriousness, I would say that today Microsoft does a better job supporting open source projects than most of their peers.
