Dear Puneet,

For starters, this isn't what he is really asking.
He said "microsoft's own partners/developers". Last I checked Linux and its
community didn't qualify.

Arjun, you could simply dig up on Sun/Microsoft's Java controversy. That
will be the best example of what you are asking for.
Btw Arjun, this topic doesn't has anything much to do with linux whatsoever.
Should have marked it offtopic. :)

Regards,
Abhi
