Summary: Microsoft gets even closer to O’Reilly
THE relationship between OSCON and Microsoft is a rather complex subject that we covered before [1, 2, 3]. It should not be surprising to see O’Reilly kissing Microsoft’s behind, having ignored Microsoft’s abusive intentions all along in recent years. They finally enter an agreement on literature.
This pair will get even closer after this deal, not just the usual sponsorships. Glyn Moody claims that O’Reilly is “a shadow of the *nix publisher it once was…”
How did this come about? █
“When people understand what Microsoft is up to, they’re outraged.”
–Tim O’Reilly
