I would love for someone to hold the Monopoly to these type of "we can be
held accountable" statements. I keep hearing this kind of garbage at work,
and yet no-one has been able to point to where the contracts provide the
accountability, while I can easily show where they absolve themselves of any
liability.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Open source soft ware is not "non-copyrighted software"

Oh... so depriving a German court of authority isn't good enough... now M$ is
stripping copyright from anything it doesn't like?[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Microsoft's last ditch efforts:
Somehow paint open code that the
Government can actually see the problems of and fix as being worse than
closed-source code where they have no choice but to wait for a patch from
Microsoft.
Somehow paint GPL'd code as "not copyright protected" -
after all... Microsoft itself uses BSD code so BSD code can't possibly fall into
the Umbrella Microsoft is talking about.
If that's all Microsoft has left,
I think it's safe to say the GPL has won. After all - it does appear to be
specifically the GPL Microsoft has a really, really strong dislike of.
