The reason Hotmail has stagnated under Microsoft is because of the programmers, not the management. Since there aren't any interesting technical problems in it, none of the hot shot programmers want to work on it. I'm positive that inside Microsoft the view is that Hotmail is something a clueless manager saddled some unlucky programmers with.
