This was in the November 2008 copy of Linux Journel and I had never seen such 
an article previously.   I had seen threads in this newslist a couple of years 
ago but never in a published mag before.   I am not proclaiming the sky is 
falling or anything like it, but am quite curious if there is anything to the 
article that one should take seriously.   Given the 'deal' with MS was about 2 
years ago, we would still have 3 years of 'safety', but if there is anything to 
the article, you don't want to wait until the lawyers start sending out their 
little notices either.   I personally hope Novell was/is smart enough to trump 
any 'Aces' that M$ might think it has with this deal.   SuSE certainly is my 
choice of OS.
