Microsoft sponsors Open Source Census
InfoWorld | at | by Mike
Microsoft has become a sponsor of The Open Source Census, a project started earlier this year that aims to track and catalog the use of open source software in enterprises worldwide, the group announced Monday.
The company's "customers, partners and developers are working in increasingly heterogeneous environments," so participation in projects such as the census is relevant to the "ecosystem" in which Microsoft operates, said Sam Ramji, Microsoft' senior director of platform strategy, in a prepared statement.
