●● Top Novell Man Quits the Company, Apparently in Anger

Departure in bad terms

It has not been long since Bruce Lowry left Novell (thank you, Matt, for keeping track of those changes which Novell tries to keep private). It has been only days since a Novell Vice President protested against the horrible deal with Microsoft, as well. And now comes another blow. Martin Buckley quits.

Positive changes? Well, apparently not from Martin’s perspective. You don’t quit a company after eight and a half years over “certain principles” unless things are really bad. I never knew Martin during my time at Novell but he was/is well-respected. His departure doesn’t inspire confidence.

There are other recent departures that are notable, e.g. [1, 2]. █

Not to worry… it’s just Microsoft’s “Linux and Mono (patent trap) department”
