SUSE Openexchange Under GPL

Posted by michael on from the shot-as-a-collaborator dept.

Gustavo writes "'Netline Internet Service announced today that it would contribute its OPEN-XCHANGE Server, the core technology underlying the industry's top-selling Linux-based groupware, collaboration, and messaging application, under the GNU General Public License (GPL).' How does it compare to OpenGroupware.org which was open sourced a year ago?"

      Scheduled? Ha!

      Why, in my day, Windows rebooted often and randomly, and that's the way we likes it...
      Stability? bah, who needs it?

    Praise God! That was the flea that kept me from using OpenExchange. Now I have a shot in hell of using this instead of MS Exchange.

    Thank you!

    There was a blue moon a couple days ago. This prompted Doom 3 to come out, and McBride to say he was not going to do any more litigation for a while. This significantly reduced the temperature in hell, causing it to break loose.
