1. Embrace is good.

2. Extend can be good if done openly and collaboratively, as opposed to closed and hidden.

3. Extinguish - Here be dragons.

I'm hopeful the New Kinder Gentler Microsoft stays on steps 1. and 2. (done collaboratively).

There is no "New Kinder Gentler Microsoft". Corporations just do what they see as more profitable. They do not make decisions based on morality per se, but they try to maintain a certain public image when it helps profits.
