The simple truth is that Microsoft is now making money out of open source (and users of open source software). Thus killing or harming open source no longer makes sense for Microsoft. Their revenue going forward depends on playing nicely with open source. Time will tell. I predict that they won't muck up GitHub. The fact is that GitHub needed an investor or buyer and Microsoft has the cash to prop it up. They could afford to support it even if it continues to make a loss. -- Mark Rousell
