More HR Moves At Novell

Posted in Novell at 10:50 am by Shane Coyle

Matt Asay reports on the continued Exodus of talent from Novell, the latest being Walter Knapp.

While John Dragoon (a generally likable and great guy) attempts to confuse the issue as to why people are annoyed with the Microsoft/Novell pact (Hint: John, it’s not an interoperability thing, it’s a patent thing), the Novell exodus continues…with Walter Knapp, former effective head of the Novell’s Linux Impact Team, is leaving Novell’s Waltham headquarters for other work.
