Will Deb Icaza (OSI's GM) follow the footsteps of de Icaza? Will McGovern follow Peters and de Icaza on their path to Microsoft? Will Zemlin go work for these "puppies"? McGovern's friend (OSI) set his girlfiend (OSI) up for a job at GNOME, so many of these things are connected.
Summary: The Linux Foundation is already 'sold' and Microsoft Tim's interview with Neil McGovern, published a few days ago, was rather revealing (comments on the article/interview were also harsh)
