I see nothing wrong in doing any such contracts with Microsoft. I believe Novell's Advocates, Management and Lawyers are fully aware of the consequences, and I believe that if Novell agreed to do that, they have a reason. I believe Novell management knows company politics better than us, Community Linuxoids. Maybe they have better vision of the future. As a *Community Member* I can tell you, that I support any such Novell move as long as it doesn't hurt openSUSE project. Even through I do not understand that political spin fully, because lack of public data. So if you believe in Novell management, please stop this useless discussion. I am sure this move is benefical to Novell. CALL TO ALL: -I call to all SUSE community members stay with Novell & backup their moves. -Alexey Eremenko. 13.11.2006. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
