Like the fools who followed .NIT and got themselves into a rut over nothin
micoshaft is relying on some windummy to donate a lot of their developer
time free to micoshaft to fix their code and extend its applications.
Well developers could do that with Linux today and have the right to
distribute all of it packaged in commercial applications unlike
micoshaft half open source commercially restricted code
where you are restricted to go to micoshaft licensing
and lose a chunk of your income in the process.
