Well, from the reports, [another story at http://www.vnunet.com/News/1153770 ] we can gather that Novell intends to set YaST free under the GPL. Novell does seem to be giving away an important part of what it bought for all those millions of dollars. YaST has given me great comfort of use for the past 4 years, and after this, more people can freely use YaST and `have fun'. Good quality custom distributions may become possible because of this move.
We could instead say,
Novell says ... have fun!
That's the bottom line :)
