根據Microsoft pledges love and money to open source這篇報導所言，長久以來，將開源碼自由軟體視為最大威脅的微軟，如今竟一反常態地轉而投入開源碼的行列。
After years of hostility towards Free Software Foundation (FSF) licensing (here and here) Microsoft has announced the first in a series of PHP patches - and it's using an FSF license.
從這篇報導看來，微軟之所以轉而投入PHP並採用Free Software Foundation (FSF) licensing，著眼點應該在於長期穩居伺服器市場霸主地位的Apache HTTP Web Server。
如何讓Apache+Windows的市佔率迅速追趕上Apache+Linux，大概就是現階段微軟嘗試克服他們最大威脅的努力重點。
