Novell only fixed it up to be usable on Linux (years ago).

The article was just news that a package containing OpenOffice .NET templates for MonoDevelop has been put together.

What is so “poisonous” about that?

Very bad move for the FOSS camp !!

I gueess this is Mircosoft doing it from the inside. They want to destroy FOSS fom inside…

As always it has been, Microsoft has suffered a huge loss whenever they tried to attack the FOSS movement. FOSS eventually won in the end, as like every other good thing that wins in the end :D
