As a result of the ongoing success of the Microsoft® Government Security Program (GSP) and positive feedback from governmental entities, Microsoft Corp. today announced it will offer access to the source code of its flagship desktop offering, Microsoft Office 2003, as part of the GSP. Building on the existing GSP Windows® source offering and the availability of Microsoft Office 2003 XML Reference Schemas announced last year, the Government Shared Source License for Office gives qualifying national governments and international organizations access to source code and technical information about Office 2003. The British government is one of the first to participate in the program and gain the benefits of increased transparency and interoperability of Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office 2003 products.

Office Source Code

Office Source Code 09/21/2004 01:11 AM
I’ve been trying to think of something intelligent and new to say about Microsoft’s recent Office source code maneuver, but Simon Phipps took care of it. Anyhow, when it comes to Office software, I’m less interested in its code (source or object) which should be disposable and replaceable, than I am in its output. Some call them “office documents”; I prefer “intellectual heritage”, “racial memory”, “crystallized thought”, “priceless treasure”, that kind of thing. They need to be taken care of better than they are, I think, and others agree.
