It is spelled 'Microsoft'.
What did you think would happen long term? I remember when that acquisition happened and there were parties thrown all around, MS finally 'got' open source.
And never mind feeding all of the GitHub contents to their AI.
My point was that these are political and logistical problems latent to GitHub/Microsoft/whatever, not to Trusted Publishing as a design. I don't think I materially disagree with you about Microsoft not having a sterling reputation.
Yes, but I think that that more than anything is the driver behind these decisions.
Which ones? It wasn't a driver behind our decisions when we designed Trusted Publishing originally; the fact that GitHub has been such a mess has been a consistent source of tsuris in my life.
