Things to Avoid on Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| Moonlight

| This is Linux port of Microsoft sliverlight apparently designed to compete
| with adobe flash. Silver light doesn't offer anything new that's not already
| offered by adobe flash.
|
| Linux distros previously included some of the technologies that were
| controversial because they were widespread and to make interoperability easy
| for new users. We don't need this turd and it's not widespread.
| Mono
|
| Here comes another patent covered piece of junk aggressively pushed by
| Novell.

| particularly take note of OOXML in light of the TomTom settlement? I would
| think so. And .NET and Silverlight. Perhaps you can think of others.

| Wake up. Microsoft should be treated like Microsoft.
|
| It is what it is. It is what it always has been.

| Microsoft asked recently to be judged by its actions, not its words. OK. The
| TomTom settlement *is* Microsoft actions. We watched it, and we judge them by
| it.
