It's amazing, isn't it? Whenever a legislator of Fed takes a stand which
hurts Microsoft, the corporate power will be used in complex way (just
follow the money, as in SCO/Baystar) to achieve its goal and serve the
agenda. Didn't Peter Quinn and that pro-ODF guy (his successor) find
themselves forced/encouraged to leave? Mass. now has a Microsoft lobbyist in
place. Groklaw and the Standards Blog have got all of this documented.
Amazing!
