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

Yes, I'd almost forgotten about all those defamatory claims of "infringement"

I'm still waiting for Microsoft to issue a public retraction for Ballmer's unsubstantiated claim that Red Hat's customers somehow owe Microsoft money, along with many other claims that "Linux" (by which I assume they're talking about more than just the kernel) allegedly violates 235 of Microsoft's highly dubious patents.

Until Microsoft either proves or retracts those unsubstantiated claims, the idea that it's now a "different company" to the "Linux cancer" hating propagandist it was when those statements were made, is just a sham.
