This week Microsoft announced yet another foray into the Open-Source arena.  The company will be assigning ASP.NET team member Bertrand LeRoy to be the company’s liaison to the OpenAjax Alliance starting tomorrow.  According to a post on Scott Guthrie’s blog, one of Bertrand’s focuses will be to ensure that Microsoft’s AJAX technologies (Library & Extensions) will integrate well with other open-source projects (ie: making sure they play nice in the sandbox…)

This marks yet another step forward for the software giant who seems to be making continuous baby-steps forward into the realm of the open source community.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again.  Good on ya MS! (now where’s that open-source version of windows…)
