In the section of an internal manual on effective evangelism, written in 1997 by James Plamondon, Technical Evangelist, he lays out an elaborate series of steps to get Microsoft’s platforms accepted as de facto standards.

This full text will gain a high level of visibility. The Slashdot crowd is possibly on its way. Microsoft’s binary soup will have some frogs leaping out of it just days ahead of the BRM’s opening. Thanks to Slated for extracting text of interest from the document. █
