http://standardsandfreedom.net/ index.php/ 2008/ 08/ 25/ save-us-from-middle-man…That had to happen, and it had to be announced. Novell and Microsoft have basically extended their collaboration, although the point of such a partnership seems unclear to both of them if you read the fine print.

ISO approves the rejection of the vote on the relevance validity of some appeals…
http://standardsandfreedom.net/ index.php/ 2008/ 08/ 19/ iso-approves-the-reject…So I am just back from vacation during which I unfortunately learnt about the war between Georgia and Russia.
