Open source expert takes on the hardest job at Microsoft (Network World)

I was at a conference once where an MS guy was talking about their Novel collaboration. Every time he asked for some opinions of others there, he had to prefix it with "Other than licensing issues, what do you think of ..." They never quite seemed to get that *is* the issue. That was a few years ago, maybe things have changed. But how many times do you need to invite the fox into the hen-house?
