No MS je vskutku „vstricny“ – ale kym jeho ustretovost vychadza z tlacenia do zmluv o ochrane, tak mi to pripomina praktiky vypalnikov :-/
Preco by vlastne bolo treba uzatvarat take zmluvy, ako uzavrel s Novellom, ak by MS nemal zle umysly?

Toto sa tyka vyvojarov ktory to robia ako bezodplatne hobby:

Uverim, az uvidim – mozu sa napriklad pripojit k Open Invention Network.
Co sa tyka Oracle, ich ustretovost je racionalne podlozena tym, ze vela ich zakaznikov pouziva databazy pod linuxom. Myslim, ze by ich dost nasr…li
