Summary of responses on another list:

1. The final death knell for SuSE. No self respecting  FOSS person
will touch it.

2. Novell is primarily interested in recouping some of their
investments in the whole mono/.net crappola.

3. Vmware throttling, of course.

4. Probably the death knell for Novell. Microseoft has never been
known to honor a contract with anyone without a firm plan in place to
destroy the contractee. It's like the Tar Baby.
