I'd agree, except for the identity of the company
proposing "interoperability". Microsoft doesn't have a history of that;
rather, it has a history of EEE and lock-out, and considering Windows is one
of their two big cash cows, I do not believe for a second that they really
want interoperability. I suspect what they'd prefer is a method of forcing
people from Linux to Windows, but not vice-versa (they did the same thing
with O/S2).
Of course that's what they want. Why does that matter?
