Microsoft makes a real open source move
Whenever Microsoft does something involving open source, look at the fine print.
Sometimes it’s under a bogus unapproved license written by Microsoft lawyers. Sometimes it’s under a Microsoft license its lawyers got through the OSI, after much wailing-and-gnashing-of-teeth.
But this is the real deal. This is Apache 2.0 licensing. And this is pretty cool code, too. Specifically we’re talking about Web Sandbox, which aims at securing Web content through virtualization. OK, that’s not a cool thing, but wait.
