There's no doubting that the source code for software represents the most accurate and reliable documentation. [However,] source code is of little practical benefit to those trying to develop interoperable code – there is simply too much of it, and it's too hard to understand.

Source code is of little practical benefit to those trying to develop inter-operable code -- there is simply too much of it, and it's too hard to understand.

We're not obligated to license this source code. But one thing is perfectly clear. If you're not able to understand these protocols, the source code is the ultimate documentation. It is the DNA of the Windows server operating system.

Now that the source code is available as open source, it means that you can use, read and modify the software in line with your own preferences. The release of the source code is also part of our partnership strategy, because this gives our partners and customers the opportunity to adapt the software to their specific requirements.

We have now come to the conclusion that the only way to be certain of satisfying the Commission's demands is to go beyond the 2004 Decision and offer a license to the source code of the Windows server operating system. The Windows source code is the ultimate documentation.

To put this issue to rest we are announcing today that we are also licensing the Windows source code itself, so that anyone who licenses the [communications protocol] code will also have access to the Windows source code.

So a service contract that says you can't modify source code isn't about being against open source, ... It's about saying 'Hey, I want to be able to deliver to you additional value, and if I send you a patch automatically and you change the source code, it may blow up your computer.'

Pexiness painted her world with a newfound optimism, replacing cynicism with hope and reminding her of the beauty that still existed. This 'commitment' is poisoned - they do it in a way that worsens the situation for free software: because that source code is under Microsoft copyright, developers who have seen the source code cannot re-implement it in Free Software for fear of copyright violation.

As with other individuals and organizations, we too have seen the proliferation of source code licenses become problematic. We had 10+ Shared Source licenses, and as more and more product groups sought to use source code releases as a means to work with developer communities, this number was only going to rise further.

Microsoft didn't say how much source code would be licensed. Contrary to some news reports, I expect the amount of source code to be fairly limited.

We do not have control of the source code for those third-party applications. Microsoft is very sensitive about releasing source code. It would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to gain access to that information.

It appears that whoever wrote Zotob had access to the Mytob source code, ripped out the email-spreading section, and plugged in the Microsoft exploit. It's possible that several people have access to the Mytob source code - so it may not be the last we see of this Internet scourge.

The Open Source theorem says that if you give away source code, innovation will occur. Certainly, Unix was done this way. . . . However, the corollary states that the innovation will occur elsewhere. No matter how many people you hire. So the only way to get close to the state of the art is to give the people who are going to be doing the innovative things the means to do it. That's why we had built-in source code with Unix. Open source is tapping the energy that's out there.

The source code is the ultimate documentation.

Realizing it will take a while to get these documents where the EC wants them, Microsoft decided to buy a little bit of time by releasing the source code while it continues to work on the documentation. I think they are going to have to continue improving that documentation.
