NewsForge: “Microsoft is known to have sought the removal of pro-open-source language from the WSIS Tunis agreement. An embarrassing incident involving the mascot of a popular open source operating system just days before the summit would surely play into the software giant's hand…perhaps the most convincing proof that opponents of open source engineered the Neuwied penguin's placement on the tracks is the fact that it did not work. The train did not crash, it in fact did not even strike the penguin. Consequently, there was no bad PR for Linux, and in less than one week, the WSIS summit concluded, with pro-open source language intact in the Tunis agreement. ”

This is pretty funny, but only really funny to a pretty limited set of people that get the whole Linux vs. Microsoft *and* the whole ITU v. ICANN WSIS story…
