At the risk to be close to off-topic, here's a tidbit:
In the SV.com's roundtable (check /.) Bruce Perens asks
about the newest MS EULA,
http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/eula_mit.htm
(Linux is specifically mentioned there, so I *am* on topic :)
While I can see that M$ can be worried about someone distributing
a product that contains both M$ code and GPLed code (there seems to
be a licensing conflict in this case indeed), they seem to tell
developers, "You want to use our products - you are prohibited to
use open source even as development tools, whether or not you
include them in your product." Can anyone knowledgeable comment on
this? I am not even familiar with the M$ product in question,
Microsoft Mobile Internet Toolkit Beta 2.
