Microsoft is wrong, among other things concerning Microsoft.
Can anyone tell me where I can find this paper please, it is pretty
important that I find it? I know this is the Fedora list, but I don't
know where else to post on it where I can get a good response.
What you are referring to are probably the famous "Halloween Documents"
written by Vinod Valloppillil & Josh Cohen that were leaked from
Microsoft and ultimately wound up with Eric S Raymond who published
them. Link below

AFAIR, Vinod didn't lose his job because he wrote them. It was an
assignment of his. He quit MS sometime after they were leaked.
