Comments on: Has Microsoft Been Blatantly Lying to National Standards Bodies?

Of course, you can take this opportunity to ask Mark himself what his plans are for the nearest future, and I can register the requisite domain name if I don’t like his answer…

Sounds reasonable as well. And you should buy boycottcanonical.com too because who knows what Mark could do in the nearest future.

Neither is active in DNS anyway, but I pay rent on them all the same.

Needless to say, we are prepared for any eventualities… and I will continue to monopolize the *nix boycott scene for my own nefarious purposes.

I’ve even considered registering boycottedu-nix.com, just in case I sell out.
