Source code access isn't worth much if you can't legally do anything with it (and MS could certainly break things with an update if they found that you did). I agree with your take on this. Why wouldn't China want their own Ubuntu fork? They've had RedFlag for years. Cheers, Scott.

Alex ÂThere is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.Â -- Isaac Asimov
