Novell has sold out. I don't see how this makes good business sense in the long term, except, of course, for Microsoft and possibly Red Hat. You don't make deals with Microsoft, because they'll find a way to to weasel out of it. Novell, of all companies, should understand this well. Are memories so fscking short? I'm stunned and astonished.
This is now the second time that a distribution and the company behind has sold us down the river. The first time it was OpenLinux and Caldera. Now it is SLES/SLED/openSUSE and Novell. I appreciate the openSUSE != SUSE insofar as openSUSE is, ostensibly at least, a community project, but when Microsoft turns on Novell, _and they will_, I don't want to be around to get any on me. So long.
When I leave M$ (3 years ago) and choose Suse, I felt free... Now I am confusing.... I am deciding to leave suse and choose something like kubuntu... I like to feel free...
The issue here is Kubuntu does not include Gnome packages and Ubuntu does not include KDE packages and some people like myself use packages from both.
Please adjust your subject line. It is really annoying to see that a single paranoid subject is able to set headers for a long lasting thread here. Cheers -e -- Eberhard Moenkeberg (emoenke@gwdg.de, em@kki.org)
