Taking a critical look at market and technology development around the enterprise space.


ellementK: (ĕll'ǝ-mǝnt-kā) noun - A fundamental, essential, or irreducible constituent of a composite entity. Middle English, from Old French, from Latin elementum. In this case, also related to the modern French mentir, to lie. (adapted from Dictionary.com)


About Eleanor Kruszewski: I'm known variously as Eleanor or Elle. My last name is like that coach from Duke - kru-shef-ski.

Based in Menlo Park, CA, I work for Yahoo! in their Developer Network. The easiest description of what I do is the MBA shin kicker, handling community, marketing, commercial programs and sundry backend stuff.

Disclaimer: I've done big corps, midcorps, and startups, so I overstate and oversimplify as much as anyone else. These opinions are my own, not my employer's.

Novell’s leadership carries open source pedigree

From an eWeek piece, Novell Open Source Carries on Without Stone, talking about the sudden departure (reported without comment as being “within days” of the announcement of the settlement with Microsoft) of Novell Vice Chair and top open source advocate Chris Stone, we have a comprehensive list of what open source ’superstars’ still remain at Novell:

Novell spokesperson Bruce Lowry, in San Francisco, said that Novell’s Linux and open-source business is still in good hands. “Our platform business is now being run by David Patrick, the former CEO of Ximian,” Lowry said. “Our European operations are run by Richard Seibt, the CEO of SuSE Linux. Nat Friedman, the co-founder of Ximian, runs the group that just brought out the Novell Linux Desktop, and Miguel de Icaza is running Mono.”
