“Microsoft already brings out the shills from the
Burton Group, whom it paid handsomely to attack ODF in the form of
several jobs (full-time wages) and contracts. Wake up and smell the

are very concerned that they never look like they are selling out,
so that makes them very prickly to work with.””
