Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the zen-and-the-art-of-public-image dept.

An anonymous reader writes "In an article on the BBC News site, Bill Thompson suggests that Microsoft release the source for IE:Mac to the world so that others can continue to develop the product. While this may be a pleasant fiction, Microsoft does seem to be making an effort to change their image. Could we see more OSS interaction from the software giant in the near future?"

    That's like ten students in Tehran calling for real, free elections.

    The difference is that the BBC writer gets to live.
