apparently the microsoft minion^H^H^H^H^H^Hveep whose memo got published
believes that someone within microsoft leaked it. according to a friend
at microsoft, he sent out a mass email to all his staff with a subject
along the lines of "i'm going to find you..." which stated that when he
found the leaker, he was going to get on a plane and come fire him/her
personally.
wonder how long it would take them to get a job at a
free-software-friendly company with THAT story? ;)
(my friend was contemplating sending me a copy of the second email, but we
decided that wouldn't be wise, because at this point that's probably a
firing offense, too. *wry grin* and please, no comments about how being
fired from microsoft might be a good thing - at least not until the job
market recovers.)
anyway, apparently the veep was pissed off because now he won't be able to
express his fear and loathing freely anymore, for fear it'll get out to
the press. my heart bleeds for him. you'd think microsoft would have
learned something from the way they nailed netscape to the wall with
netscape's internal documents...
