Novell acquired - Unix status uncertain

Oh, dear! Wonder where that is going to end. Not another SCO-like event, I hope.

And, in the press: MicroSoft bought "intelectual properties" from Novell. Which properties that would be is unclear.

Update: Novell released this: Novell will continue to own Novell’s UNIX copyrights following completion of the merger as a subsidiary of Attachmate.
