Microsoft "In this interview, OSBC director Matt Asay contends that Microsoft has been missing out on a huge opportunity with open source, but it is beginning to wake up. Whether Microsoft can become one of the guys remains to be seen, but if Asay is correct about OSS being on the cusp of core enterprise adoption, it will be an interesting year for open source."

A lot of nothing gets said in the interview.

Microsoft doing more with open source interoperability? Yeah sure, in the same way they achieved market dominance earlier.

People have been fired from Microsoft before for suggesting MS should open source certain elements.
