Re: Novell Announces Executive Departure

He was marketing officer since 2005, which is a point where Novell were

the beginning of the year, but they (at least some of them) left to join
smaller Linux vendors. They want to capitalise on Linux adoption elsewhere
perhaps, but it serves the 'big picture' equally well.

Some of these were former Suse execs who, as you would expect, coming from a midsized company where engineering was kind, and getting taken over by a larger, more market driven corporation, would feel less comfortable.


By the way, an analyst has just suggested that the current CEO should be
replaced.

They've been saying that for years, but it's still Jack Messman whose had the Linux vision and driven it as the one thing that is substituting their Netware business.
