Over the weekend, Shane has gone through the full proceedings and he now
reports his findings...
Microsoft's Official Entry into the Linux Space
,----[ Quote ]
| Of course, even if Novell can handle Microsoft's agenda due to their
| size, the agreement and their patent portfolio, how could anyone else
| in the community? Doesn't this deal exclude all but the largest
| software companies, with the requisite portfolio for cartel membersip,
| from the 'enterprise' space (assuming they are only interested in
| suing large corporations)?

Contrasting Red Hat and Novell's Philosophies
,----[ Quote ]
| Of course, a major driving factor in Open Source adoption is that it
| is an alternative to Microsoft and their monopolistic, bullying tactics.
| By aligning with Microsoft, Novell loses that selling point and is just
| seen as Microsoft's Linux Division.

The Cycle of (FUD) Abuse
,----[ Quote ]
| Judge for yourselves, perhaps Novell is unable, due to years of abuse
| at the hands of Microsoft, to see that they are committing the same
| abuse they have themselves suffered, and are only setting themselves
| up again for their own betrayal by Microsoft.
