[17:17] <PaulW2U> I won't be adding http://techaeris.com/2015/10/01/sources-claim-microsoft-is-buying-canonical-ubuntu-is-there-logic-behind-the-rumors/ to the prep doc just yet :)
[17:28] <pleia2> it's a bit too speculation for me
[17:28] <pleia2> so, good call
[17:31] <PaulW2U> It's got to be a joke surely?
[17:32] <pleia2> I've heard similar rumors, but question their validity, I'd rather not spread gossip
[17:33] <pleia2> Canonical and MS do have a strong relationship, so I believe any positioning by Canonical to get legal things straightened out with the FSF are related to that partnership, not because MS wants to buy them
