  Microsoft has changed stance on open source, claims exec
Time: 14:35 EST/19:35 GMT | News Source: TechWorld | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Acknowledging the relationship between Microsoft and the open source community has been contentious, a Microsoft official nonetheless emphasised the company's embrace of the open source paradigm, even if it was not necessarily for altruistic purposes.

The presentation by Microsoft's Stuart McKee, who holds the title of national technology officer for the United States, continued a pattern in recent years that has seen Microsoft publicly embracing the open source movement and even funding it. "[Microsoft feels] strongly that Microsoft's success has been based on the fact that we can run a lot of diverse technologies on the Microsoft platform including open source," McKee said. Microsoft has had a "contentious" relationship with open source proponents but "things are really changing," he said.
