  Who talked about calling their bluff?  I wrote the exact opposite:
let’s not point it out, and instead use it to our advantage.  The amount
of noise Microsoft makes about “loving open source” and such like is,
when you pay attention to it, deafening.  If we’re to try and attract
their attention to problems the TeX community have, it can only help to
use the same buzzwords as them.

  Already done so.

  Of course it is, to you.  Just like you don’t seem to realise that we
should be playing Microsoft at their own game by bandying about phrases
like open source.  You would surely not mention LaTeX either, would you?
