Open & Interoperability at Microsoft – What?!?

OMG…what is going on over there at Microsoft?

“Open” and “interoperable” are the new watchwords at Microsoft, at
least as far as Silverlight is concerned, according to company
executives. Microsoft Chief Software Architect Ray Ozzie
opened Mix07 with a discussion of the “comprehensive sea change” going
on at Microsoft as the company moves beyond a focus on pure software
toward his “software plus services” vision.Microsoft Embraces Macs and Interoperability at Mix07

Ok, I will hold my breath and look to see just what you can do as the new Chief Software Architect. Fingers are crossed.
Couple of requests though:

  • Port OneNote to OSX (Mainly so I do not have to hear some friend’s incessant whining all the time about it.)
  • Get onboard with open competition with VMware rather than this childish licensing policy crap.
  • Use the same logic and reasons for making Silverlight open and interoperable and open DirectX.

    Whining? Whining? Yes, I’m whining.When you become a Onenote PowerNote user such as myself, you’ll see the importance of porting it to the Mac. I’m trying Zoho Notebook but it’s still beta and missing a lot of features right now. But yes, PLEASE, PLEASE port OneNote to the Mac. I’m whining, begging, pleading and cursing.
