"Does Microsoft have an open-source strategy - beyond finding new ways to thwart Linux and other non-proprietary wares? Sam Ramji, Microsoft's Director of Platform Technology Strategy and the company's Open Source Software Lab, says it does. I met with Ramji last week when he was passing through New York on his way to Europe, and had a chance to ask him to provide a succinct definition of what Microsoft means when it refers to its own 'open-source strategy'."

"The Community Edition on that link is NOT the same as the Enterprise Edition that's available to paying customers. Enterprise customers have access to enhancements, bug fixes, and rapid updates that aren't listed there. Nice try, though."
You should actually read the link. All those are listed there, as I pointed out in my post as well. The patches and such are what's called "support", which is what you pay for. You do not pay for access to the source code. Nice try, though
