It's still too early to tell what will come of any of this. Could be bad...Could be good...I can't even fathom a guess anymore. But those were excellent links you found Max. Great info.

Sign of the times - No More Hula

On the Hula general mailing list today, it was announced that Novell is no longer providing full-time developers to Hula. While the project will continue, it appears that Novell is not committed to developing a viable open-source alternative to MS Exchange. The Hula project was announced in February 2005 with much fanfare.

I thought the supposed reason for the pact with MS was for greater interoperability between the two OSs. I would think this project would be an important component for that.

Nah. Microsoft just wants to squash any form of competition.
