MS and Novell: Relationship 'exceeding expectations'
,----[ Quote ]
| Speaking with ZDNet UK after the presentation,
| Croney said there was "a general feeling within
| Microsoft that the Microsoft-Novell alliance has
| produced better results than anticipated and this
| is reflected in the broadness of the alliance,
| and the increased focus on different
| technological components that were not
| anticipated at the outset". He pointed to the
| work on Moonlight â an open-source implementation
| of Microsoft's Silverlight rich media technology
| â and directory federation as examples of this.
|
| [...]
|
| Whereas a fundamental element of the Microsoft-
| Novell deal was Microsoft's agreement to not sue
| Novell over alleged IP infringements in Linux,
| Croney said "Red Hat have not tried to address
| the IP assurance issue at all".

Pro-mono Zealotry
,----[ Quote ]
| What this does illustrate, I think, is something that is already obvious to
| anyone that has been following the Mono controversy: there are people that
| are just as âextremeâ and unwilling to listen to reason as the most zealoty
| charactertures painted by the Broad Brush of the Most High and (Self)
| Righteous Community Gatekeepers.
|
| You can spot these people by the mindless regurgitation of other peopleâs
| talking points and the inability to make even the slightest concession to any
| opposing argument; the gleeful participation in any manner of attack or
| disinformation; the uncritical embrace of anyone or anything that supports
| thier position. A sure sign is charging the opposition with the very crimes
| they themselves are in the act of commiting.
