+1  Q: 

Is Ms-CL BSD-compatible?

Does anyone know if the Microsoft Community License (Ms-CL) is compatible with the BSD license?

That is, if I am working on open-source code that is BSD-licensed, can I reference a library that is Ms-CL-licensed?

+1  A: 

I'd check with the Open Source Initiative for information like this.

I believe the answer is "yes" - but I'm not a legal expert by any stretch.
