[ILUG-BOM] How to port WSAEVENT and WSANETWORKEVENT to linux

[Vihan Pandey]

> True, but think about it : this will help one more app out of M$.


that would be the positive way to look at it :-)

No harm using a thorn to remove a thorn.


i guess. The issue happens when you touch patented technology, to be precise
M$ authored/stolen patented technology, anything with that kind of lineage
is bound to give legal problems eventually. That app (future tense)was
ported with the noble intention of making it run on a Free(as in freedom)
operarting system, or even nobler intentions of making it a Free Software.
But because of the building blocks being tainted, it can never be truely
Free.
