Jeff Brand pretty much nails it dead on, at least as far as I'm concerned, on the OSDL offering to help explore Microsoft's porting of Office to Linux. More fluff than stuff indeed.

That said, I wonder how Jeff would feel about the OSDL pushing for a comparsion of SharpDevelop and Mono vs. Visual Studio 2003? It might open a lot of eyes and its kind of too bad they haven't done it yet.
And if you wonder why, look at MonoDevelop. That'll be sweet. If it ever gets done.
I'll be there. Please drop by the DevelopMentor booth and say Hi!
