I'm not sure exactly what betrayal you are talking about; seems to me
that IBM are doing significant work in accessabilty and open source:

http://www-03.ibm.com/developerworks/blogs/page/schwer?entry=csun_2006_wrap_up_theme
http://www-03.ibm.com/able/

Perhaps are you referring to IBM selling ViaVoice off to Nuance? If so,
I seem to recall that this did not include the linux portion, so perhaps
IBM will dust off the code & release as open source to counter the MS
Vist offering.

So how is this related to OOo? It isn't; how's about this moving to the
discussion list instead.
