It looks very interesting ! Yes, Oracle can be good to the Linux community - but only if they continue the open-source tradition. If they will close the development cycle (like it was before Novell) and our great openSUSE project - I will probably leave. Don't know where - maybe Mandriva or Kubuntu.

Me too. I guess Alexey was able to get to it. Looks like maybe it was suspended sometime after that due to non-payment to their web-hosting service, some administrative glitch, or something like that. Greg Wallace

regardless of whether you can get to or not, the analysis is flawed....
It's common thought that if you only marketed something better that
everyone would buy into it. If this were true, Microsoft would have owned
the handheld market years ago, instead of Palm and/or Blackberry (now), or
even Apple, dependent upon the type of handheld you're talking about.
After all these years, marketing giant Microsoft doesn't own much of that
market because they keep making crappy products, not something that people
want to buy. You can't just market everything and be successful.
An "Oracle driven linux project would change the world of desktop
computing forever". Why? Oracle does nothing with desktops.
Maybe 50 companies run their collaboration product. Most of those who use
their calendaring solution are people who own Oracle and have had the
calendaring product given to them (it's really hard to turn down "free").
His comment that the "biggest inhibitor to linux up-take right now.... is
lack of third party vendor support", is also off-base. I can run an
enterprise version of linux on every IBM, Dell, or HP/Compaq server I know
of. Perhaps on the desktop??? Maybe, but doubtful. The biggest inhibitor
to linux up-take is the lack of expertise in the field. Go outside and
throw a stick and there's a chance you'll hit a Microsoft Partner. Go
outside and throw a stick and you might hit someone who's compiled their
own linux, which isn't the same as being able to install it in a company,
support it, and make sure it works as well as a Microsoft environment.
Like I said before, the "Oracle will buy Novell" rumor comes up every five
years. If it happens, then we can all get excited. Before then, it's just
a lot of blather.

My thoughts on this are:
First, it will help SuSE in the Enterprise market in the US where Oracle has
a stronger clout than Novell.
I doubt it will provide any significant market change with the personal
systems in the short term, but long term if the enterprise market improves
for SuSE, then system admin people will provide some word of mouth.
At the BLU, our servers are running an old Red Hat and Fedora Core 2 because
the guy who installed the servers tried SuSE years ago and didn't like it.
Had I been the person to install the server, I probably would have put on
SuSE.
