Alex* has posted a piece of code that will solve my issue with Window Live Writer and spell checking.

The problem is that this is clearly working around a technical limitation in the software, as a non English speaker, I am obviously required to use Windows Live Writer Team Edition, which will (in the next version only, mind you) support English spell checking for non-English speakers. I am expecting the Cease & Desist to come at any moment, and Alex is currently expecting an attack from the Tean Ninja Lawyers teams.

Nice hack Alex, now off to prison with you.

* Sorry to pick on you, but that was too good an example not to use.

Interesting article about OSS, IP, Patents, and lawsuits

Do read "When are you going to sue your customers?", it's a very good read.

I can think about one company that sues its customers, Apple :-)
