There is a bit of a slippery slope here: not everything a board member or one of us Novell employees says is an official statement. In fact while I would claim that board members, colleagues of mine, or those who happen to be both like AJ or Coolo, generally are careful about what they say and write, the vast majority of such statements is *not* official in any way, form or shape. Do not take the analogy too seriously, but the situation is a bit like the pope predicting the weather when chatting with his gardener versus him teaching ex cathedra (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathedra#Ex_cathedra).
