Firstly this is entirely wrong.
Patchou and Microsoft did not join. They simply had a meeting with him in Redmond to show there is no hard feelings between the two companies. Yes Patchou is a company and it is also Cyril's alias. Patchou,
on his own, decided that like himself needs some base of revenue. Patchou uses the optional sponsor, and Microsoft uses its ads. If you didn't realize MSN Messenger is free and the ads are Microsoft's revenue for the program. (Pretty much done out of respect for one another.)
Now as for the two joining and becoming one addon. This wont be done for obvious reasons. Patchou doesn't want to "bloat" his addon and TB will never want to give up SPNG. There is a Plugin API for a reason. Things plugins can achieve can be left out of Plus! for that specific reason.
This wont ever happen so we can pretty much stop discussing it.
