"I am largely immune to conspiracy theories. I don’t believe that the American government is behind a cover up at Roswell, but I am prepared to believe that when a company with the track record of Microsoft starts insinuating itself with Apache it is not with the well being of others in mind. The phrase “extend, embrace and extinguish” (E3) is virtually synonymous with Microsoft.

Let’s see if we can tease out just what is going on."
