There have been questions recently about the status of the Hula project, and I apologize for the silence while things have been sorted out on Novell's end.
The quick synopsis is, Novell no longer has anyone working full-time on Hula...

I believe GroupWise is the product that directly competes with Microsoft Exchange, not Hula.
Please look into Novell's entire product line before posting such FUD.

Novell abandons open source Exchange competitor
Software vendor discovers that the world doesn't need another email server
Tom Sanders in California, vnunet.com 29 Nov 2006
Novell has axed support for the Hula open source collaboration suite for email, calendaring and contact lists.
The company decided to pull its developers off the project because the software lacks opportunities in the market.

I don't profess to be an expert on the Novell product line, or the Microsoft one for that matter, but email calendaring and contact lists sounds alot like exchange.
Thank you for the clarification.
It seems likely the end of Vista 10 coinciding with a sharp rise in memory prices (and now energy prices) will benefit GNU/Linux and therefore give us more to write about
MinceR says the "lkml [message/page] one is April Fools or at least they're trying to pass it off as April Fools [however] the [GitHub] one was archived on the 8th and yesterday, so that probably isn't..."
Like Scam Altman, Larry Ellison hangs around Cheeto King because he could use some bailouts in the form of government contracts or phony money with an incredible name like "Stargate"
When forums say that they banned Microsoft Lunduke or don't want him mentioned it's probably because they are familiar with the "stench" that follows him around
