Miguel de Icaza on his journey from open source to Microsoft: 'It's a different company'

open source people universally hate Miguel.

Speaking for the entire open source community, Miguel, we hate your guts.

It is generally accepted that Miguel de Icaza has *always* been on Microsoft's payroll; it simply isn't a secret anymore. He single handedly destroyed the open source community's first and best hope of a unified desktop environment by creating the KDE/GNOME schism. Then he balkanized the managed code scene with open source implementations of Microsoft .NET

Microsoft has never been Miguel's enemy. Microsoft has *always* been his employer and his master.
