linux.conf.au: What is Novell doing here?
,----[ Quote
| I also raised the issue of Novell employees like Miguel de Icaza and Nat
| Friedman who appear to be pushing further and further to duplicate
| technologies which Microsoft has developed and offering totally unconvincing
| explanations as to why they are doing so.
|
| [...]
|
| These arguments notwithstanding, it is a fact that overlooking what Novell
| has done tends to dilute the whole message of FOSS. Novell, obviously, is
| hoping that, as public memory is woefully short, it will be able to wriggle
| its way back into the community. Providing such leeway is, in my opinion, a
| big mistake.
