The Open Source Initiative looks forward to working with Microsoft

As you can see, there have been some changes here at the Open Source
Initiative. We've decided to stop fighting Microsoft and join them.
After all, Microsoft has been using, maintaining, and distributing Open
Source software for years now. As this Information Week
<http://www.informationweek.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=2069058
58&subSection=News>  article says, Microsoft will be putting Open Source
components into Office. As Linux Torvalds said ... when they Open Source
Office, we win. That, coupled with an eight-figure buyout offer which
has personally enriched each and every OSI board member, we feel is
sufficient to turn the keys to the realm over to Microsoft.
