[ale] Interesting happenings with Ximian/Novell

[Steve Long]




As a CNE, this is exciting news from Novell.  

Novell's embrace of Linux should provide CNE's a 
career development path.
 
I love the way they describe SCO's attempt at 
bleeding money out of Linux as extracting!
 
Anybody see a down side here?
