Further (Personel) Losses at Novell

It seems there have been a few more departures from Novell in recent weeks.

“Reverend” Ted Haeger – a leading light in Novell & Linux Advocacy. I met with him briefly whilst at Novell, on one of his many flying visits to the UK, he certainly left an impression on me!

My good friend Roger, also pointed out that Robert Love - one of the key Linux desktop developers, and ex-primate, is also on his way to pastures new.

And some re-organization of the Linux structure within the company:

Novell dissolves its Linux Impact Team. To find out where some of the ex-LIT folks are, a website has been set-up to track them http://www.ex-lit.org/

For completeness sake, I should name-check a couple of S.u.S.E “alumni” sites:

I’m sure Novell will survive without these guys, but, as always, it will be a different place.
