So why don't you deal with the people directly committing this sort of thoughtcrime, instead of Microsoft?

Are you silly? Of course he does. Now ask him if Apple should put an arbitrary price on Safari or iTunes, or whether the FSF should put an arbitrary price on any of its utilities, simply because otherwise a "level playing field" might not develop.

So this is pretty much it. It's not about standards, enforcing a free market (kind of a contradiction in terms, innit?), ensuring a level playing field for Web browsers, or any of that pie-in-the-sky bullshit. It's about putting enough handcuffs on a competent company so their less competent fellows can catch up.

FreeBSD Begins Switch to Subversion 120
An anonymous reader writes "The FreeBSD Project has begun the switch of its source code management system from CVS to Subversion. At this point in time, FreeBSD's developers are making changes to the base system in the Subversion repository. We have a replication system in place that exports our work to the legacy CVS tree on a continuous basis.
People who are using our extensive CVS based distribution network (including anoncvs, CVSup, cvsweb, ftp) will not be interrupted by our work-in-progress. We are committed to maintaining the existing CVS based distribution system for at least the support lifetime of all existing 'stable' branches. Security and errata patches will continue to be made available in their usual CVS locations."
