FOSS Community, Microsoft And Reconciliation
,----[ Quote ]
| I had a fair amount of respect for Neil McAllister until today. In
| his article, McAllister is calling on the FOSS community to "to set
| aside their pride, recognise (sic) their place in the larger software
| market and start working to build bridges, rather than fortresses."
| Nowhere in his article does McAllister suggest that Microsoft should
| change its behavior. Nowhere did McAllister suggest that Microsoft
| should stop abusing others. Nowhere did McAllister suggest that
| Microsoft consider making a public acknowledgment of the way it has
| treated the FOSS community. In his view, Microsoft has the flowers;
| therefore, we should go back home.
