"Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers!" They were losing hearts and minds in the Web dev space by waging war against open source. It makes far more sense to co-opt it, as per the Halloween-document strategy. TBH I saw this coming 20 or so years ago, about the time when IBM started putting on its open-source cheerleader outfit. Open source is formless, shapeless, like water per Bruce Lee. You cannot oppose it with force, it will just get everywhere; but by aligning yourself with it you can direct it. That's what I saw IBM doing and I knew Microsoft would follow suit out of lack of choice. And now here we are. |
