One could be interested in learning things from MS code AND/OR bsd/linux code. One could be open minded, and any insight of how the most used piece of software in the world works is an asset. Reading and learning from Microsoft code doesn't make you less prone to read and learn from BSD code, now does it?
I for one find it very promising that Microsoft goes down that road, and having access to the MSDNAA I'm surely gonna look into this.
Btw Windows sources have been available to select partners for quite a while, just nowhere near this king of "openness" afaik.
