| The TurboCASH Accounting Project is the worlds leading open source accounting software for small business. 100 000 users; 5000 consultants; 80 countries; 25 languages; 1 compile | | NEWS - Finally sense prevails at Microsoft. It looks like Microsoft may back off its announcements to ban open Source apps from its app store. Microsoft - here is a suggestion for a friend and long time supporter of Windows:
It is time to take a dose of humilty and chill out. Windows is not the top dog in the mobile space. It may be very difficult for you to adjust to this reality, but unless you do, you are likely to die an agonising death in this segment.
A little humility will go a long way to getting support from a whole group of communities that can enhance your mobile offering. Open source projects like TurboCASH, Open Office, Fire Fox, Thunderbird, Firebird, PHP will have little problem porting to Windows Mobile and can bring a much needed momentum to your catch up.
This is not the time to be ranting like Steve Jobs from his hospital bed. This is the time to be looking for ways to assist us to offer top of the drawer mobile apps that will bring our communities to your platform.
