oiaohmI can see attachmate wanting SUSE even without MS StuffNov 22 22:49
oiaohmI can even see attachmate trying to help OpenSUSENov 22 22:49
ThistleWebwhat does it mean for opensuse?Nov 22 22:49
ThistleWebwerent they getting more disillusioned with novell before?Nov 22 22:50
oiaohmRecent years it been getting harder for attachment to sell there products with System builders normally just aquiring a distribution and put it on there hardware.Nov 22 22:50
oiaohmSo SUSE is a good deal no matter what for attachmentNov 22 22:50
dyfet__though it would be ironic if attachmate also finds it needs to de-mono suse :)Nov 22 22:51
ThistleWebso this could be the "if you want linux, buy from the official sanctioned one, who have paid for our IP, or face the threat of a lawsuit"Nov 22 22:51
oiaohmWould not matter novell still held a lot of core old school SUSE developers.   Removing mono would not be hard for them.  dyfet__Nov 22 22:52
dyfet__I did not say it would be hard, just ironic :)Nov 22 22:53
