The Register: “Microsoft has made a portion of the Windows CE 3.0 available as ‘shared source’, as promised. Friday’s announcement sees a new licence which has at the very least the virtue of simplicity.

As we pointed out in May when Craig Mundie made this pledge, CE hardware manufacturers already have access to this code; so it’s a deal with no net downside for Microsoft and it’s bound to garner publicity. “
