Microsoft and GPLv2 – I bet you weren’t expecting this :-)

I didn’t know about it until last Friday when Alex Wade told me. Today, Microsoft announced the submission of GPLv2 code into the Linux kernel!!! Unbelievable. As Jim Zemlin characteristically said: “Hell has frozen over, the seas have parted”. :-))

You can read all about it in this NetworkWorld article (and I am sure all over the tech news).
