Re: Microsoft Moving Toward an Open Process on Cloud Computing Interoperability
I have received no less then 100 emails and voicemails about the Microsoft blog post this morning. See > http://bit.ly/10UHgP
Let me say, we've been in active discussions with Microsoft about the open cloud manifesto which has literally come together in the last couple weeks. It is unfortunate they feel this way. Microsoft was among the first to review the manifesto. Their 2:28 AM pre-announcement of the manifesto was a complete surprise given our conversations. If Microsoft is truly committed to an open cloud ecosystem, this document provides a perfect opportunity to publicly state it.

Why is it unfortunate? Steve says that the "Manifesto" was presented in such a way as to prohibit discussion or ammendment, and that they could only sign on to it as it is/was, is this a lie? If it's not then I would wholeheartedly agree with his sentiment. You cannot create a Manifesto on "Open Standards" in a closed fashion, as he quite rightly points out that is ironic at best.
