| Linux license delayed by Novell/Microsoft review |
|---|
The partnership between Microsoft Corp. and Novell Inc. has delayed completion of a new license that will govern rights to key parts of the Linux operating system.
Free Software Foundation general counsel Eben Moglen said on Monday that the controversy over the Microsoft/Novell deal has complicated the completion of General Public License Version 3, or GPLv3, which will be used to govern rights to thousands of open-source computer programs created by software developers around the globe.
