Betreff: Microsoft buys GitHub

Amen to that. Something I have been telling for so long.

In fact I can't remember a single thing M$ came up by themselves. They
always bought stole, or equivalent. Even the initial CP-M is not something
B.G. did come up with himself. 
When people, around 2000 (XP) decided to stop writing anything that could be
directly used by them it dried out. They got all the wizzes together and
came up with a big flop (of which a very simplified run down version we know
under Vista).
Ergo why they bought GitHub: they are desperate for new material

Just my $.02

Subject: Re: Microsoft buys GitHub

Do we need to be reminded that IBM had a 32 bit desktop OS a year and a
half before MS could muster one up?  They finally (20 years late) gave
Windows 10 users two huge benefits millions of us have been enjoying for
more that 20 years:  virtual desktops (a VERY clumsy implementation to be
sure) and a usable command prompt window.

Even at this time they are using their ridiculous "software patents" to
prevent innovation and hold back the advance of the industry.

Microsoft is and always has been a poison to technology.  Everything they
have has been acquired either through purchasing or bankrupting the
innovator.

There's a lot of stuff on GitHub MS can now steal and market like they
invented it...welcome to the Windows World.  They've never invented
anything but they sure know how to market other people's innovations.

The sooner NB liberates itself from GitHub the better off we'll be.  If Git
is the tool of choice I say let Apache set up it's own Git repositories for
Apache projects.
