Well, think about it. If Novell's Desktop is GNOME, and their Server is GNOME, why would they want to have a different standard on SUSE and OpenSUSE especially when that's where they get their code base? We were all kicking around the office about just how long it would take Novell to kill SUSE like it did UnixWare, WordPerfect, now NetWare. I was thinking it would take them a while. Considering that every poll of any validity shows KDE has 2 users and developers per Gnome's 1 (very conservative) to more like 3:1 it would make sense to kill something you'd go to the 1. -- See Ya' Howard Coles Jr. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
