  Microsoft ploy to block Sun exposed
Time: 14:13 EST/19:13 GMT | News Source: News.com | Posted By: Byron Hinson

Microsoft executives apparently attempted to steer the direction of a Web services standards body away from rival Sun Microsystems, according to evidence and testimony introduced during the software giant's ongoing antitrust trial. E-mail messages from Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates and other executives, introduced during testimony last week, offer rare insight into the political maneuverings of the company. In an e-mail to top executives, Gates indicated that he approved of Microsoft's involvement with the Web Services Interoperability Organization (WS-I) as long as Sun's role was minimized.
