Microsoft Keeps Up Presence at Open-Source Events | |
|
||
| Time: 05:37 EST/10:37 GMT | News Source: eWeek | Posted By: Alex Harris | ||
|
Determined to have its presence seen and its voice heard by its core customer constituencies amid the growing open-source chorus, Microsoft is coughing up cash and sponsoring targeted open-source conferences. The Redmond, Wash., software maker is a platinum sponsor of the OSBC (Open-Source Business Conference), being held in San Francisco on Tuesday and Wednesday. Jason Matusow, director of the Shared Source program at Microsoft Corp., also will give a talk Wednesday afternoon examining the effects of commercialization on open-source software and discussing strategies for adopting source-code licensing in a commercial software organization. Microsoft, which has rented booth space at the annual LinuxWorld shows on both the East and West Coasts for the past few years, decided not to have a booth presence at this year's LinuxWorld show in Boston. | ||
