Recently, Microsoft released the source code for PowerShell under the MIT license. Here's the link for that.
https://github.com/powershell/powershell
I was wondering what you guys thought about it. Specifically, if any of you will be using it, if you think it should be in the main repos, what this might mean for the future, etc.
Nothing personal to the OP(maybe this wasn't intentional flamebait), but I, myself, don't want to hear "news"/propaganda about MS open source trapware in an Arch Linux mailing list or anywhere else for that matter. I see it's been uploaded it to aur. great. I won't be using it or voting for it's inclusion in official repos. I'll refrain from responding to "what this might mean for the future".
