You claimed "The companies that sell proprietary solutions make their
money supporting stuff while you pay, then they abandon their product
some 10 years in after milking the system and you are left high
and dry unable to migrate."

What proprietary solution did this to your company?

Why would they hesitate to answer and support their [ludicrous and
irrational and bogus] claims?

Oh...

Why would it work?  DFS is a troll, and can demand nothing.
Might as well supply info to a street schizo.

"2nd request"

*LMAO*

You mean free as in freetard I hope.
WTF are you talking about this time? Are you even aware of the context?
Or are you, as I suspect, sucking up to people who call you a Nazi if
one suggests that FSF/FOSS/Linux development resources try working
together and not against each other? God, you're becoming worse by the
day. And you being a contribute nothing Windows programming big mouth to
boot.  The stench of hypocrisy is fogging up this group.
