[L. V. Lammert]

At its Connect(); 2016 developer event in New York City today, Microsoft
announced it is joining The Linux Foundation. And the company isn’t joining
just to say it did: Microsoft is joining at the Platinum level, the highest
level of membership, which costs $500,000 annually. John Gossman, architect
on the Microsoft Azure team, will sit on the foundation’s Board of
Directors and help underwrite projects.

Can this be?  Microsoft announced it is joining The Linux Foundation
