[News] Can Novell Change Microsoft Deal to Invalidate Patent FUD?

Novell: We Didn't Sell Our Soul To Microsoft

| Will this be enough to improve the open source world's opinion of Novell?
| I'm skeptical. Over at GrokLaw, the view is that Novell ought to simply 
| drop the patent sharing part of the deal.:
| 
|   What in the world was this deal about then? It seems at this point that  
|   it was Microsoft angling for a FUD opportunity. In any case, the deal is 
|   falling apart, I'd say. Microsoft's statement alleges that they don't 
|   have to agree to go forward. But if the parties themselves don't know 
|   what they agreed to or what the words mean, how valid is the contract?
