I am guessing that as soon as the first CDROM is pulled from its bag,
anyone being identified as a Linux radical will be escorted from the
property under threat of a trespassing charge. I would hope the activity
would be discrete and non-disruptive. As others have mentioned, it does
no good to cast a bad light on the Linux movement or to embarrass Linus.

Also, any detailed planning might want to move to a private list as I am
assuming Microsoft lurks this one. If they don't, they are dumber than I
thought. If they are going to "target the process" they are going to have
to be expected to closely monitor the process they are targeting for a
while.
