Novell Dumps the Hula Project

Posted by kdawson on from the wonder-why? dept.

asv108 writes, "On the Hula general mailing list today, it was announced that Novell is no longer providing full-time developers to Hula. While the project will continue, it appears that Novell is not committed to developing a viable open-source alternative to MS Exchange. The Hula project was announced in February 2005 with much fanfare."

    I'll put a quick witty comment here that touches on the sensitivities of all readers. Or even better, I'll post something obvious about open source's benefits that will mod me up and re-inforce my fragile ego.

    And then I'll finish with a quick funny remark about M$.

      You got modded down--looks like you hit a little too close to the mark.

    As one who created his own Hula software project as a part-time developer, this cancellation saddens me.

    Uhhhh, ahem.
