I can't for the life of me think how they would embrace and extend Open Source?Why, you just take Free software (or Open Source software, if you prefer) and extend it with your own additions! You don't even need to take the original software proprietary, you just have to keep your additions proprietary. Exactly the kind of thing that the GPL doesn't allow. That is why Microsoft doesn't like the GPL: they cannot embrace and extend GPL'd software. (They are not, after all, as clever as Google ;)
