I was reading an article by John Markoff regarding the tactics of MSFT in it's war with AOL. You know, the one where they had a MSFT employee pose as someone else and say something bad about AOL's software... I found this at the end of the article: Separately, America Online and Novell Corp. on Thursday announced that Novell, a network software provider based in Provo, Utah, had licensed the AOL Instant Messenger software and planned to build it into its Netware Directory Services software for corporate users. ``We see this as a huge opportunity,' said Michael Sheridan, vice president of strategy businesses for Novell. ``This is something halfway between a cell phone and electronic mail.' Address of original story: mercurycenter.com Somehow by placing this piece at the end of the article, it gives me the impression that AOL perhaps DOES have something to worry about and is enlisting the company with the best directory product to add security beyond the actual sofware technology their product relies on. Maybe I just wear rose-colored glasses??? :) Peter J Strifas
