Maybe this whole forking process is a BIG plan to get a "Microsoft" Open Office. The PuppetMaster pulls the strings and boy oh boy, does Novell JUMP! Novell , without a doubt, are trying to create a "Microsoft / Windows" friendly version, and let me guess, next the preferred document format will be OOXML and NOT ODF!!!
NOVELL == MICROSFT == OOXML != ODF... so screw NOVELL they are using Open Source for their own benefit not the Open Source Community!!!!
I live in South Africa and except for having some of the slowest internet connections in the WORLD, I also pay $40 for 3GB (excl my ISP cost of $20 for a 384kb line)...and that is WOW!! It cost me more to display the add then the advertiser is willing to pay the web page owner!!! So ethically speaking, they are stealing MY bandwith, that I pay for! Beat that!
