Microsoft spent years telling people that OSS == communism and that OSS was stealing their IP.<p>I imagine that the MS developers who believed the FUD have a hard time accepting that going open-source won&#x27;t cause Ghost Stalin to appear and steal their children because it contradicts what MS told them for all those years. For the same reason, existing OSS developers have a hard time accepting that MS has suddenly stopped trying to undermine their legitimacy or squash them with dubious lawsuits.<p>Honestly, what did MS expect?
