Is he? He's just saying both MS and EA are equivalent in what they open source right now.

EA has open sourced tons of their internal libraries which are "more valuable than their products from a community benefit perspective." Just take a look at their GitHub. What "platform" of theirs has MSFT open sourced? Which of those were an important platform of MSFT. EA is atleast releasing something which made them money as open source.

Uhh, .NET?

I thought mono was developed by a team outside Microsoft.

Microsoft open sourced all of dotnet. Runtime, class library, everything.

All of .net is open source? So you can now run any winforms or wpf app in the operating system of your choice? That's great.

Winforms is a thin wrapper around windows APIs, so no, you can’t.

Not the debugger it seems :(
