Hello All,   
      
   Another funny post about Microsoft and GitHub. This one comes from the latest    
   RISKS mailing list digest:

   Subject: Microsoft to acquire GitHub for $7.5 billion   
      
   via NNSquad   
   Microsoft Corp. on Monday announced it has reached an agreement to acquire    
   GitHub, the world's leading software development platform where more than 28    
   million developers learn, share and collaborate to create the future.    
   Together, the two companies will empower developers to achieve more at every    
   stage of the development lifecycle, accelerate enterprise use of GitHub, and    
   bring Microsoft's developer tools and services to new audiences.   
      
   All GitHub users forthwith will be required to run Windows 10 or subsequent    
   Microsoft operating systems with all privacy options disabled, manage their    
   code only by voice via Cortana, and install the new Microsoft Clippy 2018!    
   Microsoft Office Assistant on all of their devices. Microsoft will now scan    
   all GitHub materials for patent infringement and turn violators over to local    
   authorities for arrest.   
      
   Later,
