Why would it compromise the goals/agenda? An event is different from the sponsorship. It's like the Google sponsored ads that I see towards the right of Gmail. They take up space, they advertise themselves, they ask for some of my time, but they are different from the emails I type in here. Anyways, feel free to take this off-list/IRC, don't want this to degrade to a Is Microsoft good/evil conversation. And sorry for the top post.
