To Curtis, et all: Before worrying whether to switch to another distro or not, what is the status of Mr. Mantel and a possible NON-COMPETE clause in his leaving? Does anybody know?
Non-competes only specify that you can't try to take contracts your previous company was working on, and stuff like that. There is no way Novell, or anybody else can legally stop him form working for another company doing what he was doing for SuSE.

The company I worked for for 21 years made me sign an agreement when I was hired, that if I left for any reason, I would not work in the same business for 2 years after leaving. I assume that this was/is legally binding in the United States. This was a Fortune 500 company, so they must have had good lawyers. --doug -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
