I have been curious what this means for the Ximian desktop. Novell also bought them. Perhaps a merging of the two? Does this mean SuSE will become more Gnome-ish? That would be too bad, IMHO. But I would love to see Evolution grow. Maybe not crash all the time when connecting to an Outhouse server. The irony is that the one part of Evolution I have actually paid for is the one part that does not work. The rest I like very much. Bumped Sylpheed of the desk...
