Novell Open Source - yes (but maybe not NetWare)

Novell is already going this way due to the fact that it is adding 'value' to and using open source products.

Currently Novell has the following going on where the source should be released back to the rest of the world

cldap - api layer to LDAP
Apache - Novell are supporting the port and adding features
Tomcat - Novell are supporting the port

As for NetWare, Novell still will not release many of the API's, so don't hold your breath about source code.
