Every company which ever engaged in a so-called 'sharing' agreement with the POS company (M$) is either out of business or suffered huge financial losses (Remember the IBM back-stabbing? remember stacker?) because of it.
Why would either of these examples be relevant to this? This code is already open source? What is there to take that isn't already out there?
