A tour of the Microsoft open source lab

i dont know, but things like exchange 2007 OWA being a sh*it in firefox, 
not having support for public folders, not having rich text support, when 
supporting the public folder is just a matter of putting there the damn 
link, rich text support is just a matter of dropping TinyMCE (its LGPL, so 
not any problem using it) or using correct html and javascript instead of 
activex... OR adding support for odt in office (and sharepoint) and drop 
ooxml (or at least use BOTH)... or let activeX die and promote the use of 
correct html and javascript... or adding working support in outlook and 
exchange for other protocols other than MAPI (like webdav, caldav)... or 
add native support for other filesystems (HFS+, ext3) and protocols (ssh, 
nfs)... or  (etc, etc, etc)

only when MS stops putting stupid limitations in it own software and start 
to use standard protocols (without extending it), we people will give you 
some slack

dont get me wrong, your work is important, but for each thing you manage 
to improve, other parts of MS manage to break or limit 3 or 4 other 
things. Apple have done a system that mostly plays well with others, MS 
keep trying to play alone and only listen to other kids with big guys 
(gov's, big companies) force then to.

Competition is good, if your software is good, there is no need to make 
business by enforcing a monopoly and using grey methods!!

so again, you guys are doing a good thing, please dont stop, saddly there 
is still ALOT to be done
