in reply to Sophos acquires ActiveState

Interesting headline there "Sophos acquires anti-spam specialist ActiveState." Apparently activeperl wasn't tops on their list.

A little searching comes up with this amoung other articles indicating Sophos has a positive stance towards FOSS. Doesn't appear to be too much to worry about here.

    Rats!   (I think)   The anti-spam offering from Sophos was rather, umm, less than ideal.   We (the underground conslutants) were hoping to convince the security people at one place to replace it with PureMessage.   Sigh, victory in the marketplace, where the 'products' are not the products, they're the companies.
