Foggy slant from Novell staff at the event which promotes Linux (LinuxCon) but not necessarily software freedom

Microsoft's Novell's Miguel de Icaza does not properly explain that GNU/Linux users need to download proprietary software exclusively from Novell in order to make Silverlight content available

Novell's CMO John Dragoon published this article in Forbes, so his subordinates promoted it in Novell's PR blog and his personal professional blog too. It was about "open source". Also mentioned in Tectonic was Novell's IDG "study" that we last mentioned in this post.

Windows is promoted at the expense of Free software and Linux because Novell's Mono endeavours are increased and get a new name: "MonoDroid"

Microsoft has extended its covenant to not sue users of Linux-based products from Novell to all GPL v3 users as soon as GPL v3 code is integrated into SUSE Linux Enterprise. This means that the patent protection Microsoft extends to Novell customers now covers every customer who uses any Linux-based software that Novell distributes under GPL v3.

More evidence arrives showing that Novell is simply advancing Microsoft at the expense of GNU/Linux

Novell elevates more Microsoft technologies; SUSE de-emphasised; layoffs looming

The openSUSE project, which creates the development version of Novell's SUSE Linux, is getting a handful of full-time Novell developers.

Novell continues to show that it doesn't care about OpenSUSE; instead, it's focused on marketing Fog Computing, proprietary software, and the Microsoft-taxed SLES
