Yes, and I read that MS will buy EFF and replace GPL with
a proprietary MS license. Be prepared to pay dearly for Visual GCC 4.
Eric Raymond will become a VP in Redmond, WA.

Hi guys,
No, it's a hoax. Here's the site of the person who started the hoax, and
tells all about it:
http://www.microsoft.com[EMAIL PROTECTED]/1338825GHU_98.asp
And by the way, this is NOT Microsoft's site. It's a spoofed URL (easy
enough to do).
Cheers,
JoJo

Not likely. The LINUX kernel is and always will be under the GNU Public
License (GPL) The terms in that license are diametrically opposed to
Microsoft's business plan (something that Gates and Balmer have spent a
great deal of time contrasting). Yes MS has used open source software
(think DNS)
