I'm not asking for you to apologize for it. I am simply suggesting you recognize your own biases. They can color your understanding of things -- and they apparently have: >>> Telling people to 'get over it' when referring to our issues ... >> >> Do you have context?

Those are The Register's words. Reading *just* the quotes attributed to Miguel, he basically comes off as being impressed with the technology of .NET, but mentioned the Microsoft issue very little. He also appears to be interested in what has been submitted to ECMA as open standards, and not interested in the proprietary Windows stuff. Given that, and that alone, I would be cautiously optimistic. -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do not | | necessarily represent the views or policy of any other person, entity or | | organization.
