Jon Udell thinks Microsoft should Open-source WPF/E. I almost always agree with Jon. And when I don't at first I find that I eventually do. Maybe I should outsource my thinking about this industry to Jon. Anyway, I agree with Jon this time too.
Late last year Dare suggested that Microsoft should either disband the IE team or transfer it to the MSN division. I agreed with Dare too - again, this happens a lot.
Now Microsoft Offers To Help Firefox Run On Vista. Here's a silly idea. Microsoft should kill IE and then let the MSN division support development of Mozilla.
I wonder what it would look like if Google, MSN, and Yahoo were all contributing code and patches to Mozilla? Could it work? Would it work better than trying to hammer out specs? After all, isn't the code the spec anyway?
