Only a short time after Ted Haeger and Walter Knapp resigned, Robert Love, Chief Architect of Linux Desktop at Novell, resigns as well. He joins others prominent figures such as Jeremy Allison and Gunther Deschner. From his Web log:
=> ↺ Ted Haeger | ↺ Walter Knapp | ↺ Robert Love | ↺ Jeremy Allison | ↺ Gunther Deschner
An operose decision, I resigned as Chief Architect of our Linux Desktop endeavor, effective today.
It has become very clear who gained from the Novell/Microsoft deal. Linux operations at Novell have been completely disrupted. Disruption of the market through deals and acquisitions is something that might affect Google as well. Microsoft is reportedly flirting with Yahoo again. They seek a takeover.
Update: a discussion at Slashdot contains many speculations, including possible reasons for Robert Love’s departure. A loud critic of the deal, Bruce Parens, is among those who comment.
