The comments here seem brutally negative, but I applaud Microsoft for yet another step in what seems to me to be a firm-wide aggressive embrace of open source tech. The Microsoft of yore would not have built this at all, let alone released this on Github. |

Some of us still remember how Microsoft used to Extend and Extinguish right after Embracing. Protocols, formats, standards; you name it, they did it. It is true the company seems changing to better, but you can't re-build damaged reputation overnight.

Those aren't that brutal yet. Read up some discussion on software patents. Or on PHP ;-)
