Here's to hoping that Novell is acting in the greater good on the Open

Bah everyone is running around trying to screw RHAT at the moment, we
are expected to believe that the recent kicks to the belly are not
coming from the same foot?

Indeed. My oversight as well, as I did not notice and just modified the
original link. Thanks Rahul.
Here is a corrected link from my post:

Most of my observations still hold, with the exception of course of
Oracle, which has seen an upward trend since March of 06.
It further tends to emphasize RHAT's rather substantive growth trend
through May of this year.
It still remains to be seen whether the downward pressure since May for
RHAT continues or the trend reverses.
