  Microsoft To Meet Most EU Demands
Time: 04:32 EST/09:32 GMT | News Source: CRN | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner

Microsoft says it will meet most demands by European Union regulators on making software blueprints available to competitors, including lowering licensing fees, but is seeking further talks on some issues.

Microsoft said it delivered a letter to EU regulators on Monday detailing its intentions.

The EU last month threatened new fines if Microsoft doesn't make it easier and cheaper for competitors to see the blueprints, known as source code.

Brad Smith, Microsoft's top lawyer, said the Redmond, Wash.-based company told the European Union it isn't opposed to licensing the code to open-source developers as long as it's assured that its intellectual property will be safeguarded.
