Interesting.... but when you sup with the devil, you need a very long
spoon.

MS has a history of signing agreements with potential competitors,
gouging their business and then discarding them.  Alternatively, Novell
may benefit but there may be sinister implications for the rest of the
open source community.

Either way I have a healthy sceptcism of Microsoft's motives.
