AlexGr writes “Having worked with Microsoft’s excellent development tools while simultaneously being bombarded with harsh invective by open source advocates, who can’t view the giant as anybody other than a convicted monopolist, my position on open source is simultaneously cynical and optimistic. I don’t see any obvious moral high ground to open source, yet I strongly believe that as an economic force, it can bring considerable benefit to enterprise software market. I’ve been reading about Microsoft’s increasingly charitable stance on open source for a while now, but Brad Abrams’ recent talk about Ajax at AjaxWorld made it particularly vivid to me.”
