At a Novell conference today the advised reading this and if any question
post them via the links on the page.

Covers things pretty well. QA4 is particularly important:
"Novell is committed to protecting, preserving and promoting freedom for free
and open source software."

Let archive.org archive it. Then if they don't keep the promise, cite them.

I can still cite Ballmer calling the GPL "cancer" and Gates calling Linux "communism". :-) :-)


Suddenly they flip-flop.

I said it before and I'll repeat: Novell should have liaised with Red Hat, the friend; not liaise with the enemy to combat the friend. Too bad companies are run by MBA's and not engineers who perceive a mantra properly.

Best wishes,

Roy
