Microsoft to convert world to "shared source" - by 15,625 AD | |

Lost in the ballyhoo about Microsoft "opening" its "secret code" to the world is evidence of real world adoption of the Shared Source programs. Fortunately Microsoft-Benelux has some answers. And they prove that the scheme is far more successful at gathering press coverage than actual users. | ||

From a practical standpoint what can having the source code do for you? I can't imagine a company wanting to add functionality to Windows XP that isn't there already. Giving all of the development tools available for Windows why not just write an application that sits on it.

| RedHook - That's because it's not about the source. It's about getting the software for free. |
