OK, I'd like to collect more opinions on this thread today
and then reformulate my position at the end of the day.
My $0.001.
Microsoft will try to own as much of the internet as it can. I believe it is
important
to get unencumbered SPF out as fast as possible. In the long run, anything you
do
with Microsoft can and will be used against you. In particular, they appear to
be
trying to kill ALL non-proprietary software.
As I said when I helped start Usenix - AT&T has more lawyers than this
association has members. Microsoft has more resources than most countries.
