Logo já deverá rolar a todo o gás.
"The software industry is going through exactly the same transition. Seven years ago, StarOffice and Solaris, to take a couple examples of key products at Sun, were built by our own employees. The source code to both was available under restrictive licenses, but our (equivalently Pulitzer Prize winning) engineers wrote 100% of the code. With very limited input from the community. We listened to users (and their letters to the editor), certainly, but we didn't allow them to touch the code (or lay out the front page). We were in control.
And then our biggest competitor became, in the late 1990's, a product built by a company that aggregated and organized software from the open source community. They built little of their own, they relied on the software equivalent of community content, or Free and Open Source Software."

The coupons have no expiration date, and Microsoft can be sure that some coupons will be turned into Novell in return for software after the effective date of GPL 3. Once that has happened, patent defenses will, under the license, have moved out into the broad community and be available to anybody who Microsoft should ever sue for infringement."

""The Free Software movement is dead. Linux doesn't exist in 2007. Even Linus has got a job today." Controversial statements from the head of Microsoft's Linux Labs, Bill Hilf.
Speaking on the last leg of a tour of Singapore, the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand, Bill Hilf, more formally known as Microsoft's platform strategy director, was in the region to "be descriptive and intelligent in giving people an understanding of open source and debunk a lot of the mythology around open source."
He said that most customers run a distribution - RedHat, Novell, Suse or Mandriva. Most of the work on maintaining the Linux kernel is done by developers working for these distributions, he noted
"They are full-time employees, with 401K stock options. Some work for IBM or Oracle. What does that mean? It means that Linux doesn't exist any more in 2007. There is no free software movement. If someone says Linux is about Love, Peace and Harmony, I would tell them to do their research. There is no free software movement any more. There is big commercial [firms] like IBM and there is small commercial [firms] like Ubuntu," he said.
O desespero é tanto que já nem sabem o que dizem, ou melhor, nunca souberam mas agora está pior. Quando consegui parar de rir, a minha primeira reacção, ao ler esta prosa foi:
-Querias não é?
Ora, ora, Bangkok...
Ainda por cima depois de Singapura, Filipinas, Malásia e Tailândia!
Circuito e "tratamento" completo!
Man, não fumes disso que te dá cabo dos 7 neurónios e meio que tinhas!
pppppsssssstttt - um tão grande entendido e decerto superiormente informado, a tal ponto de frequentar um curso para trolls, ou seja "I spent a week in antitrust training to know exactly what the boundary conditions were,", deveria saber, que a tal pequena firma é a Canonical, nunca o Ubuntu...
Há coisas que toda a gente sabe mas que, pelos vistos, não são "ensinadas" nos calabouços de Redmondia.

In a talk at CeBit Australia 2007 in Sydney, (Mitchell) Baker spoke about how collaboration has made the success of Firefox possible. "I don't think you should let a word or concept as important as 'collaboration' be defined by Microsoft to mean calendar and e-mail integration," Baker said. "Collaboration, especially for millions of people on the Web, is about many other things."
The Mozilla CEO tried to dismiss the idea that open-source collaboration resulted in a haphazard "Frankenstein-like" monster of a program, but that the development model instead created a product that people trust. "We don't have anything to hide behind. We can't hide behind our mistakes because they are all out there in the public," she added.
