I like this blog, and someone needs to point out&lt;br&gt;stuff like this.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You claim the deadline hasn't passed, yet every source I've read says&lt;br&gt;the deadline was December 15, 2005.

I searched your&lt;br&gt;article for "deadline", and couldn't find anywhere an actual date in&lt;br&gt;the future.&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So I don't understand why you say the deadline hasn't passed.&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In any event, we all know MS is tasked with doing the near impossible.&lt;br&gt;However, it should be possible for any decent software company whose&lt;br&gt;source base is more organized than a spaghetti bowl. And that's really&lt;br&gt;the whole point. They brought this on themselves.&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I mean no disrespect and don't want to start a flame, but I have&lt;br&gt;serious questions with your claim about the deadline date. Please&lt;br&gt;respond if you have some reference that says something different.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">noone of consequence</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 17 Jul 2006 16:33:29 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Kangaroo Court in Brussels</title><link>http://tlf.disqus.com/kangaroo_court_in_brussels/#comment-1446570</link><description>Well, I was gonna let this go,&amp;nbsp;but this is the 2nd time you've&lt;br&gt;posted about this.
