Novell to Release 20% of Their Employees?

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the should-have-worked-for-the-oil-company dept.

sicariusdracus writes to tell us that Ron Hovsepian, the new president and COO of Novell may have his hands full in the near future. Ron has been tasked with getting the troubled business back on track which many have speculated could result in more than 20% of the 5,800 man workforce getting a pink slip (although Hovsepian suggests that may be an over exaggeration). Part of the restructuring will be announced with Novell's fourth-quarter financial results.

    the trouble with KDE is it bases on Qt and that means if you wan't to legally make commercial software for it you have to pay trolltech which isn't very attractive.
