Novell UK Chief on Microsoft's Role in Novell's Future

"Our partnership with Microsoft continues to expand."

--Ron Hovsepian, Novell CEO



Yesterday we mentioned the departure of Jacqueline de Rojas from Novell. The Inquirer now has some coverage about her replacement who will take the lead in the UK and Ireland.

Microsoft has a big part to play in Novell's future, McCarry confessed. The Microsoft interoperational agreement had so far proved "very substantial" he said.


That's not news, but it's merely being recited, so at least it's known where Novell still stands.

"[The partnership with Microsoft is] going very well insofar as we originally agreed to co-operate on three distinct projects and now we’re working on nine projects and there’s a good list of 19 other projects that we plan to co-operate on."

--Ron Hovsepian, Novell CEO
