Robert Love Resigns from Novell

An anonymous reader writes "Robert Love who was the Chief Architect of Novell's Linux Desktop has resigned today. Robert is a prominent Linux kernel hacker, author and journalist in the Linux community. His blog doesn't specify why he resigned, but after colleague and friend Jeremy Allison's departure from Novell in protest of the Microsoft-Novell deal, this might be the latest fallout from it."

    If you are not Mormon, then living in Utah outside of SLC is very difficult. Do not get me wrong. I like Utah. But folks are not friendly with you unless you are the same religion.

    Love is a human being who declined to make his reasons public.
    It wasn't necessarily his choice.

    I think we have to respect that he isn't talking to the press about this yet, without letting Novell off of the hook.
