Good news and Bad news Chris. You are on the radar screen.

I know it’s no excuse, but that C&D was probably not screened by anyone who had a clue (aka it came from the legal dpt)
Still a shame it happened though.

I’m confused, are you saying red Hat have become MS? LOL.
I don’t see anything on the MS link which says anything other than spend money with us (though we will now work with others…finally) What have I missed?
