What will be the impact of Microsoft-Novell pact on Linux community ? Will it be another "Embrace, Extend, Exterminate" tactic by the Giant ? -Sushrut Kulkarni ============================================================== I really dont think this news gonna make any change in "Linux Community". But yes at stock market, at international business exchange stretagies there will be much curiocity. It's a game! Both parties done collaboration type deal for there own benefits. No advantage for any indivisual programmer or to developer. It's all about benefit and business values. These type of crises comes under "business" criteria. And we normal people just towards this impact as a indivisual which doesnt make any difference. DO we know if in near future Microsoft buys Google or vice versa? If it happens our daily router or work going to change? Definitely not! So considoring it a CEO level issue, i dont think it'll affect linux community at all. -- Amey Abhyankar.
