Hi Raven,
Got two more links for you which add some context to the stuff you’ve got.
On the Microsoft Xandros deal:
http://www.internetnews.com/dev-news/article.php/3681221
Xandros’ CEO told me that it was Xandros that approached Microsoft and not vice versa.
On the Palamida OSA Story:
http://www.internetnews.com/dev-news/article.php/3681106
Palamida’s co-founder admitted that Patent Risk isn’t addressed by their solution and that the vuln scanning isn’t a deep dive but rather a analysis against known issues.
