> And today I found out about "Microsoft Open Technologies, Inc." I've never heard of that group before!
Open Tech is the MS group that is trying to push open source as a culture both inside Microsoft and also among traditional .NET developers. They're the reason you can run Node on Azure, can reliably run Redis on Windows, and they're the ones leading the drive on ASP.NET vNext, the next version of ASP.NET.
It makes it a really exciting time to be a .NET dev.
