Does the BSA pay for the costs associated with an audit? Or can they
just arbitrarily come to any company suspected of using open source
software(non-Microsoft), and audit them (thus costing the company a
significant amount of money)? The timeline for a BSA audit seems like
a long, painful process that doesn't apply to linux-only companies.

Also, can "we" (anyone) set up an alliance, and get the sheriff to
back us up when we enter companies using microsoft products, and audit
all of their software... seeking for violations to the GPL?
