Why would IBM's LOTUS end Notes/Domino development for NOVL ?

" Lotus is ceasing development of Notes/Domino groupware for Novell's NetWare operating system.

Lotus customers are not investing in NetWare for e-mail or collaborative software and the result has been a drop in the percentage of Domino customers using NetWare ...

... customers increasingly are moving to the Windows NT and Unix operating environments" Davis said Monday.

Lotus and Novell continue to discuss issues related to NetWare, "and it's always possible the decision could be revisited ..." Davis said.

Can you believe UNIX is moving mainstream ? Is AIX gaining enough to replace the 20% of Netware users as NT hasn't to date .

Doesn't make sense unless there is a IBM UNIX or new AIX coming ?

Anybody know why ?
