Microsoft's 'Everywhere' Excludes Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft's Windows Presentation Foundation is aimed at making it
| easier for developers to create modern user interfaces for
| interactive applications whether they are Windows native or
| delivered through web browsers. The problem with browser-based
| interfaces is that not everyone uses Internet Explorer, let
| alone Windows itself. To this end, Microsoft has released
| 'Community Technology Previews' of a future product code-named
| WPF/E (Windows Presentation Foundation Everywhere). This
| browser add-on enables rendering of WPF content, but
| "Everywhere" doesn't include Linux.

Another lockin and another way of 'punishing' the competition. More fuel for
antitrust lawyers.
