SCO: So die already!
,----[ Quote ]
| Another shoe has dropped for the SCO Group
| -- this makes about a dozen -- but when
| will this outfit go away?
|
| First the SCO Group sues IBM for billions
| in a case related to alleged intellectual
| property infringement, and then it starts
| threatening Linux and Linux users. Then,
| after Novell says that the SCO Group does
| not have the rights to Unix that it needs
| to sue and threaten, it sues Novell. Since
| then it has been mostly downhill for the
| SCO Group.

Daily Dose - What is Chromoting?
,----[ Quote ]
| Although we now know that Novell's Linux-
| related patents are safe from SCO, there's
| no telling what could happen when Novell
| is acquired (companies have started
| bidding).

Novell plots recovery as buyers circle
,----[ Quote ]
| While the answer given by Novellâs board
| was a clear refusal, it also stated that
| it would be prepared to consider
| alternative offers. According to an May
| 2010 report in the The Wall Street
| Journal, about 20 suitors â mostly private
| equity firms â had approached the company
| with offers. At the time of publication of
| this article, no offer had been accepted.
|
| Private ownership may allow Novell to take
| the drastic action required to turn its
| business around, should the intelligent
| workload management and âcloud enablerâ
| strategies prove insufficient. There is,
| for example, an opportunity for a company
| with deep pockets to become a commercial
| open source consolidator. It would be
| ironic if the opacity of private ownership
| were to allow Novell to pull this off.
|
| In the meantime, Hovsepian is focused on
| making Novell a company with an identity,
| and the ability to live up to it. âIf we
| have built an ecosystem and a model that
| was institutionalised, so that the brand
| has a clear identity and the employees
| have their clear identity,â he says, âthat
| would be a great legacy.â
