Is the Wall Street Journal a good enough source? :)  Tuesday morning's 
WSJ had an article and summary about it.

And in a document for public consumption, there would be no discussion 
about using FUD as a strategy (he concludes it wouldn't be effective 
against open source).

There's enough in there contrary to the ms party line that it's quite 
clear that it's confidential.
