Well I read that news on Zdnet that Sam Ramjii, Director of Microsoft’s Open Source Software Lab, has extended an invitation to the Firefox and Thunderbird developers asking them if they’d like to visit the company’s open source research center. Microsoft’s hopes are that, in a four-day span, the company can provide the open source developers with enough information to get the popular web browser running smoothly on Windows Vista.  Its sounds snafu, and smell rotten already: P

Microsoft after something, or big blue coming to realize it’s time to go open source, at least share. Last news Mozilla team accepted the invitation. Rumors about similarly Microsoft invited some openoffice developer too, anyway no matter how true is that, this one is solid, since it’s already in press release. If Microsoft come up with some kind of arrangement, software world be rocking, off course big blue have to clear up some pride stuffs :P

We all have to agree Big Blue once was the greatest, and yes they were the pioneer. But they have to dance with the new music of open source now, software world is free now. Now point is who will help who? Big Blue to firefox or Firefox to Bigblue:D
