Novell Releasing Hula and 200,000+ Lines of Code

H0ek writes "Seems Novell has announced at LinuxWorld Expo that they will be releasing 200,000+ lines of code to the community in the form of a project named Hula(TM). The project is derived from the Novell NetMail product and provides web-based email and calendaring. Seems our boy Nat Friedman has some info on this, too. If you were fortunate enough to get a MyRealBox email account, you will probably know what NetMail is like."

Needed! open access app servers

[Ars-Fartsica]

NetMail will enable a great webmail app (one day)...but who will run the server?

There is a great extension for syncing my Firefox bookmarks with an FTP server...but who will run this server?

iFolder allows easy syncing to a Novell BlahBlah server...who is running one?

Barring running these servers on my home box or a domain I lease myself (yuck), these seem like impotent solutions. Someone needs to open servers for these clients or whats the point.

WOW!!! 200,000lines of CODE
