●● Quick Mention: Novell’s Quarterly Report (March 2008)

A couple of days ago, Novell released another dysphoric document which follows another. Here is Novell’s Quarterly Report, which should also be available for download directly from the SEC’s Web site.

One person who took a closer look at the document finds some bits of text which pretty much align with what was clarified in the annual report for 2007.

Novell’s latest 10-Q quarterly report with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission provides a flashback to its 2004 lawsuit against Microsoft under The Clayton Act, alleging the software giant wrongfully “eliminated competition” from the office productivity space.

[...]

Notes Novell: “We intend to oppose the Petition (to go to the U.S. Supreme Court) and proceed with discovery before the trial court.” Recent history has shown that Microsoft may have reasons for not being huge fans of the discovery process.

When will Novell finally make some reasonable progress on this case? Is Novell just too reluctant to bother what it openly describes as a “partner”, on which it depends? █
