 Also, it's unlikely that this was deliberatly "leaked" by microsoft
(IMHO), because it's not exactly good publicity for them. Far more PR
damage is possible because of (admittedly somewhat backhanded) admissions
of how well the Free Software community is doing and the subtefuge they
are planning to combat it than any gain they could get from seeing our
relations to it. Rememeber it's not only Free Software enthusiasts and
microsoft haters who will be reading it.
