I know, as I spend a lot of my work hours tracking down the latest names in the hopes of being able to better keep tabs on what's coming next from the Redmondians. Each month, I'll be releasing an updated, downloadable version of the CodeTracker. I'll add new codenames -- arranged in alphabetical order by codename -- of forthcoming Microsoft products and technologies. I also will note timing changes (date slips, the release of a new test build, the disappearance of a planned deliverable) for entries that are already part of the Tracker. Once Microsoft releases the final version of a product or technology I've been tracking, I will remove it from the Tracker. In that way, the CodeTracker will remain focused on futures. (An aside about the Tracker: A question mark in place of an entry means I have insufficient information to hazard even an educated guess about a particular category.) If you have suggested new entries or corrections to existing ones, please drop me an e-mail at mjf at microsofttracker dot com. Thanks!

  • Discovery Attender User Guide
    Welcome Sherpa Software's Discovery Attender is a software tool designed to automate the search and collection of electronically stored information across a variety of platforms. This dynamic solution sits behind the firewall and enables in-house talent to identify and gather responsive information in a timely, defensible manner. The Discovery Attender interface is designed to be intuitive and user friendly. The Welcome Screen (above) serves as the gateway to the product. From here you can directly open the PreSearch Tool or create a project. A project serves as a repository for a collection - related searches and associated result sets. Once a new pro- ject is created, the MAIN CONSOLE acts as the central hub to allow you to control the creation, processing, and organization of searches. From here, you can access a Search Wizard which guides you through the step-by- step process of creating a new search. The MAIN CONSOLE also provides access to the Result Management features to view, organize, export and report on the messages, attachments and files that are found during your custom searches. Where to Begin To effectively filter and produce data with Discovery Attender, you must first create a project . Once a project is created, follow the steps below to begin the process: Step Action Description 1 Create and Run A Search A setup wizard leads you through the process of selecting locations and criteria to include in your search. Once started, the chosen data stores are scanned to find items (called results) that match the selected criteria. Information and metadata from these results are stored in the search data- bases.

  • Open Source Mit Vorsicht Zu Geniessen
    Achim Patzner, Dr. Walter Speth, active BIT1, Bonn Open Source mit Vorsicht zu geniessen Seit Richard Stallman in den 80ern die Free Software Foundation ins Leben gerufen hat, geistert der Begriff der freien Software durch die Branche und wird allzu oft voreilig als lizenzfrei und/oder kostenfrei missverstanden. Das Gegenteil kann der Fall sein: Die Wahl für eine Open Source Plattform kann Herstellern ein Lizenzmodell aufoktroyieren, das mit den Unternehmenszielen nicht vereinbar ist. Zeit für eine Richtigstellung: Nach der "public domain software" und der bereits genannten "free software" kam im Siegeszug von Linux und mit der Veröffentlichung der Quellen des Netscape-Browsers im Mozilla-Projekt Anfang 1998 die "open source software" und mittlerweile aus dem Hause Microsoft auch noch den Begriff der "shared software" (man hat verstanden, dass derartige Campagnen durchaus Marketing-Charakter tragen). Die Free Software Foundation distanziert sich übrigens vom Begriff "open source Software"2. Allerdings steht gerade dieser Begriff für das kollektive Erstellen von Software-Projekten, aber weniger wegen eines speziellen philosophischen Ansatzes, sondern weil er zu einer Zeit geprägt wurde, in der die hohe Durchdringung der weltweiten Vernetzung die Kommunikation innerhalb der Entwicklergemeinschaft ermöglichte und weil Linux als augenscheinlicher Vertreter für Open-Source-Produkte den Kondensationskern für das Bewusstsein von kostenfreier Software darstellte. Richard Stallman wollte "Freiheit für Software", er wollte aber nicht Software im Sinne von Freibier (so seine eigene Formulierung). Die Freiheit besteht im wesentlichen darin, dass der Hersteller sein geistiges Erzeugnis, die Sourcen verfügbar macht. Deren Nutzung ist allerdings durchaus im rechtlichen Rahmen der mitgelieferten Lizenzvereinbarung zu sehen. Es geht also weder darum, Software - 2 - ohne lizenzrechtliche Einschränkungen nutzen zu können, noch geht es darum, die Anwender mit lizenzfreier Software zu versorgen.

  • Microsoft's Shared Source Initiative As an Alternative to Open
    How open is open? Microsoft’s Shared Source Initiative as an Alternative to Open Source Software Anne-Kathrin Kuehnel Department of Law and Criminology, University of Wales Aberystwyth Email: [email protected] Introduction: “Judging a Book by its Cover” There are few certainties in life: everybody is playing football but, in the end, Germany wins. The murderer is always the butler. Or the gardener. It never rains in “Midsomer Murders”. Until recently, one of these used to be “Open Source good, Microsoft bad.” But now, it would appear that times have, indeed, changed and nothing in the software industry is as perceived and traditional wisdom would have it: Microsoft is opening up some of its source code. Over the past few years, Microsoft has promoted a project called “Shared Source Initiative” which allows access to source code to certain customers (e.g. research institutions and independent software vendors) on a restricted basis. Furthermore, it has also introduced some licenses which appear to give unrestricted access to source code and seem to closely resemble ‘traditional’ Open Source licenses. Given that availability of source code is a prime characteristic of Open Source Software it could be argued that Microsoft has embraced the Open Source Software philosophy. And indeed, one of Microsoft’s sharpest critics, Lawrence Lessig, is openly praising Microsoft for its Shared Source Initiative for opening up some of their source code.1 Rumour also has it that Microsoft has at least been thinking about submitting some of their licenses to the Open Source Initiative for certification.2 Does this mean that Microsoft has (finally) seen the light and embraced the Open Source philosophy? If Open Source Software was only defined by the accessibility of source code, the availability of source code would equal open source.

Birkinbine Doctor of Philosophy School of Journalism and Communication September 2014 Title: Incorporating the Commons: A Political Economic Analysis of Corporate Involvement in Free and Open Source Software Free (libre) and open source software (FLOSS) emerged in the 1980s as a radical alternative to proprietary software. Fighting back against what FLOSS enthusiasts viewed as overly restrictive intellectual property protections placed on proprietary software, FLOSS was designed with the intent of granting users the right to study, modify, adapt, or otherwise tinker with the source code of software. As such, FLOSS users were able to collaborate in producing software that could be distributed freely and widely to others, who could, in turn, make changes to the software.
