Microsoft Promises To Be Less Secretive, More Open
by Alex Woodie
Microsoft last week promised to take a much more open stance as it pertains to sharing APIs, protocols, and other technical documentation with third-party developers, including open source developers. The software giant established four principles that it says will provide a guide for how it will interact with other organizations in the years to come, and backed up that promise with the immediate posting of 30,000 pages of technical documentation that were formerly considered trade secrets.

Welcome to Legacy Status, Windows Server
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
This week, Microsoft will finally get Windows Server 2008, formerly known as 'Longhorn Server' and the companion to the desktop Windows Vista operating system, out the door.

'Centro' and 'Cougar' Become Windows Server Essentials
by Alex Woodie
Microsoft last week grouped its bundles of Windows software for small and midsize businesses under the Windows Server Essentials brand. 'Centro,' the former codename for the new midsize business offering that has been in development for two-and-a-half years years, becomes Windows Essential Server 2008, while 'Cougar,' the codename for the small business offering, continues its lineage with the Windows Small Business Server 2008 name.

Microsoft Presses Forward with Yahoo, as Shareholder Lawsuits Mount
by Alex Woodie
With little real action visible in Microsoft's $41-billion bid to buy Yahoo, the software giant decided to reiterate to the public why the marriage will work. In an executive letter posted to Microsoft's Web site, Kevin Johnson, president of the Platforms & Services Division, lays out the reasons why a combined company makes sense. Meanwhile, several groups of Yahoo shareholders are suing that company for not taking the offer. READ MORE >
