Novell owns Gnome?  That's a little silly I think.

Looks like a lot of hot air and paranoia to me.

FWIW, mono wasn't in Fedora for a while due to patent concerns.  The
folks at Red Hat legal decided it was acceptable after careful

potential for MS to try and sue them and other linux vendors out of
business. :)
