Novell has no deal with Microsoft about patents. Novell can't ship patented 
stuff.

The only deal that was made is, if ever patented stuff is found, MS will not 
sue customer and viceversa, but the code will be removed anyway.

You know. 1% of the population can undertand what they read, that is why we 
get so much fud in the blogs, and now those fashion "Goodbye SUSE I am 
changing distro announcements".
