Doing the Samba in Public
,----[ Quote ]
| It's a little hard to tell whether the statement âwas offered an opportunityâ
| means that it was Microsoft who instigated the project, or whether it flows
| from the earlier EU investigation into interoperability that led to
| Microsoft's documentation being made available to Samba for a nominal sum.

Around the Web: Samba - The Interoperability Dance
,----[ Quote ]
| Samba very quickly became a valuable piece of merchandise to the Linux and
| Unix companies, who have sponsored its development and employed the Samba
| Team's key developers, although notably in the case of Allison, the
| developers have quickly left their jobs rather than accept any compromise to
| the integrity of the project. Like the developers of other key free and open
| source projects, the Samba Team are mostly employed by third parties to do
| what they would be doing anyway, working on Samba and programming for fun,
| while getting paid for it. The attraction for the employing companies is that
| they get an invaluable piece of software for the price of one or two
| developers and an ear to their requirements, but as Allison points out "free
| software is not incompatible with commercial activity".
