mjh writes "ESR has reviewed the latest Microsoft leaked Linux strategy document. A very interesting read. Summary: OSS is winning some battles, but Microsoft is poised to bring out bigger and nastier guns." To the extent that people read it and gain some insight into what Microsoft is actually thinking about Linux and Open Source Software, it's useful. To the extent that anyone draws a conclusion from this document like "we've got Microsoft on the run", that's just idiotic.

    We say look at the underlying political position. Theres no such thing as truth only interpretation..

    We are running an interview series with key figures in the Open Source movement and have got up the first notable, none other than Eric S. Raymond himself.

    As we are politically inclined, and readers might not be, they may think we're asking him the wrong questions, perhaps, but we are interested in what connections he sees in Open Source and the world at large (if any) ... and anyway we love politics.... and we love Open Source... and a good argument.. ;-)

    See Raymond's own views on Linux and propaganda at at our site
