Novell’s future growth is largely dependent on its success and commitment in the open source community, but sources close to the company say a quarter of the planned 100 layoffs there will be from the SUSE development teamAt least a quarter of Novell Inc.’s recently laid-off employees are from the company’s SUSE Linux development teams in Germany and North America, according to an anonymous source close to the company.

Does this include Mono developers? How about developers of Go-OOXML, the disruptive fork of OpenOffice.org? If not, then Novell is just focusing on the vassalisation of GNU/Linux (to Microsoft). █
