After the iPhone's success with the easy installation of applications using the iPhone App Store, more and more companies have tried to implement similar application delivery models in other markets. The most recent example is Microsoft, who has launched a sot of app store for... Open source server software. Yes, you read that right.

True. But I bet MS is only including selected open-source software which runs well on Windows/IIS. That's not innovative at all, of course, but it's a good service for Windows Server users willing to discover which software is somewhat "endorsed" (meaning, they suggest it runs very well on Windows).
Nice service, under their point of view.
