Now I have to ask, where does the money come from? If
the ORG has no
money, I guess it should produce a competing distribution CD. This could
make M$ happy, so M$ would have a target to
sue at. Also everyone on the board would become a target as well.
The way to avoid
being sued by microsoft (or at least sucessfully sued) is
not to violate microsoft Copyrights, Trademarks or Patents. (we have to be
especially carefull what with large chunks of windows out there in the form
of the leaked NT4 and 2000 source dumps)
And not to use any information obtained from microsoft under NDA.
Although, being Microsoft, just suing us (regardless of whether they have a
case or not) could be enough to seriously damage the project :( )
