I think the fundamental problem with capitalism is that the system (legislature, judiciary, markets and administration)
1. Encourage people to EXPLORE wealth.
2. Encourage people to ACCUMULATE wealth.
3. But does not encourage people to DISTRIBUTE wealth, until they volunteer themselves.
If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange apples then you and I will still each have one apple.
But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.
MIME-RPC [http://www.mimerpc.com] is a protocol for applications written in different languages and on different platforms to communicate with each other using a public standards.
It works with the millions of already deployed web apps and web browsers (without plugins)
It handles all Internet data including Unicode, JPEG, XML, etc.
It works over both HTTP and SMTP (web and email)
It protects application programmers from wire level concerns.
It provides complete interlanguage object serialization (cyclic refs.) as well as interlanguage messaging
It supports two way communication over client/server connections
It is easy to implement.
It doesn't require an extra XML parser when your application doesn't need one.
Its specification is short and unambiguous.
It leverages existing transport layer features like encryption, proxying, asynchrony, streaming/chunking, etc.

I've sent a mail to Oeone asking them to release the source code in compliance to GPL. After getting reply from them, I'll post it on /.
Well, I hope MS would realize that open source is one of the key attributes to building trustworthy systems.
... this attribute of the creature is dangerous to ecology
This would NOT happen. Chinese is not diversified, as is English. Please check google zeitgeist. http://www.google.com/press/zeitgeist.html
...if the product enters non-supported phase? I believe this will happen.
Remember Windows CE 3.0 code was released albeit under shared source license.
