Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to MS in Peruvian open-source nightmare

Posted by Roberto Mello on
What I don't understand is how can Microsoft be telling the pentagon that free software is bad when it has testified before a federal court (http://linuxart.com/news.phtml?item=159)that its products are so flawed that even publishing specs for some of its products will become a risk to national security?

How can a company with such products recommend _anything_ to the pentagon, where security is simply an absolute requirement?

That doesn't make any sense to me.
