Microsoft believes many of its efforts to market its products against
Linux and open source are backfiring, according to an internal memo
leaked and posted on the Internet. [...]

The memo says, "Messages that rely on an abstract discussion of
intellectual property rights are not effective ... The discussion of IP
rights needs to be tied to concrete actions." Raymond speculates that
this passage may be a hint of future lawsuits to be filed by Microsoft
against open-source developers. 

"Uh oh," he writes. "I have to wonder if 'concrete actions' is code for
'massive #@%!$ing lawsuits.'
