| "Consider the publication and execution of a joint Microsoft-Novell
| roadmap as the critical missing piece of this agreement, with the
| potential to make or break its long-term value," the pair wrote.

| The companies promised a first roadmap in March. If there's no
| document by then, look elsewhere for your next opportunity.
