We alway new MS cannot be trusted and now Novell cannot be. Thier support for MS OpenXML Format and helping the format get appoval with ECMA while at the same time making statements that they support OpenDocument format is very questionable. Companies that operate on both sides of the fence simply fail and cannot be honest. They have with this deal given up support for ODF by proxy.
They might say they want SFLC help regarding GPL license issues to try and save face but do they really mean it or care if they getting $$$$?
