OIN Statement on the Microsoft-Novell Deal
,----[ Quote ]
| Now the Open Invention Network is speaking out about the
| Novell-Microsoft agreement. I reproduce the statement in full,
| but the essence is this -- Novell doesn't need a "patent agreement"
| of any kind from Microsoft and neither do you:
|
| "OIN continues to support the Linux community's ability to
| collaborate and innovate. Through the accumulation of patents that
| may be used to shield the Linux environment, including users of
| Linux software, OIN has obviated the need for offers of protection
| from others."
