I suggest, seeing as this conversation is getting really really boring,
that you contact Opera, Real, et al, and communicate to them the fact
that Novell is violating their license/copyright. If they then decide to
sue Novell, we know that you're right. If however they don't, we know
that Novell was correct. In both cases, it's much quieter for us.
