Microsoft passes OpenAjax interoperability testing

By Microsoft Subnet on Mon, 09/24/07 - 1:54pm.

Microsoft certainly has a love/hate relationship with open source. So chalk another one up in the "love" column. Microsoft officials said that they have passed OpenAjax interoperability tests, according to eWeek . Specifically the company's software passed InteropFest 1.0 tests which means that it will work with other AJAX components in the OpenAjax Hub. The hub will provide interopability between different AJAX frameworks and has a decent list of participants including Adobe, IBM, SAP, Tibco and more. Microsoft joined the OpenAJAX group in March.
