Hi Peter,
Do you or anyone else know what Novell is doing about the vacant VP/Marketing position?
I am CNL with no technical knowledge. BTW, I appreciate the sharing of technical expertise.

Novell Mulls NDS giveaway scheme

zdnet.com

funny wasnt that what a few of us mentioned a long time ago!?! The NDS itself is not the money-maker for Novell, its the NDS-enabled applications that a customer will be strongly atracted to once NDS becomes their DS corporate standard. If NDS becomes the defacto industry standard of Directory Services then Novell's tightly integrated NDS-enabled apps will be extremely hot sellers (including NetWare)!

So NOW the Novell Execs are coming to that realization. What bugs me is that this was a no-brainer concept a long time ago but the opportunity was missed. If Novell would have followed this free NDS strategy when NDSforNT was first released, then the NDS entrenchment into the industry would have been much further along.

Ohh well - what do we know!
