Novell Linux Chief Leaves for Google
Robert Love, a key Linux programmer and Chief Architect of Novell's Linux Desktop efforts, has announced he is leaving the company and taking a position at Google. Love will join the search company's Open Source Program Office, which manages projects including the Summer of Code and Google APIs.
Love's resignation from Novell comes after another Linux programmer, Jeremy Allison, also left the company for Google. Unlike Allison, however, Love says he is not leaving due to Novell's recent patent covenant with Microsoft; rather, he feels it was simply time to move on after three and a half years.
