I have not seen one reference to the Canopy Group in all the reactions to Novell acquiring SuSE. As the controlling influence for SCO, Canopy is screwing the GPL and now as a controlling influence in Novell, they are buying SuSE.
Way back in the olden days (5 years ago), we were all saying how important it was that we have a broad selection of Linux distros, so that we could avoid having a Microsoft with another name. Now we have RedHat and Canopy Group as the two major players. Isn't anyone else concerned about this?
