Judge sets hearing on Microsoft delays

Seattle PI | at | by Mike

Microsoft's delays in making software code available to licensees prompted a federal judge to express her concern and decide to revisit in June whether the company is complying with an antitrust settlement.

U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly said Tuesday that she will wait to see in three months whether the company meets goals agreed to with the government on providing the documentation needed by rivals to make software that works well with Microsoft's. The judge also asked for details of a new, anonymous complaint against Microsoft.
