Microsoft and Novell Cooperation

[Christoph Strobel]

Microsoft will recommend SLE in the future, if their customers want a Linux
solution. They also promise not to sue Novell or Suse Linux developers for
patent issues. (Detailed article in German language under
http://www.heise.de/open/artikel/80523)

Oracle with its own distribution, Novell cooperating with Microsoft. Looks
like RHEL is facing hard times.

Maybe not the article itself. But I still think it is an important topic
because a Linux distribution promoted by Microsoft will definately influence
the propagation of all other Linux distributions including Fedora.

Discussing this here might not be very constructive. Please avoid flame 
baits.

One point here will be :

should fedora ambassadors recommend suse as an alternative linux
distro instead of fedora ?
