Microsoft announced its third software code. Open a collaborative program source code.
The company discloses its FlexWiki source code. This is a software created a "Wikis" web page. This web page contains a topic, multi-bit users can create and modify their content.
FlexWiki is the company in accordance with the third source code released by the source opening license rule this year. In April Microsoft, its Windows Installer XML (WIX) was published in SourceForge.Net, and the company just announced its Windows Template Library (WTL) in January.
Microsoft said that these projects are the most active projects in the top 5% of SourceForge. As of now, people have downloaded 100,000 WIX copies, 20,000 wtl. FlexWiki will also put in the SourceForge website.
SourceForge Supervisor Patrick McGovern said that people were calm for Microsoft's source code open response. He also said: "This is not too positive, but it is a good start."
However, Microsoft's software disclosed to the source open group is a supplementary tool for its core business. There are still many restrictive shared programs that allow specific organizations to enter more code. Last week, Microsoft expanded its government security plan and enclosed the Office code. The government can view but cannot modify the code of some important products of Microsoft, such as Windows Software.
Jason Matusow, Open Open Open, said that the company will gradually expand its source code open program, but it needs to be gradually familiar with the source opening group of the source, so the step is slow. (CNET Technology Information Network)
