BTW, Dan Bricklin (of VisiCalc fame), was to moderate a meeting
sponsored by the Massachusetts Technology Leadership Council where MS
and Novell could answer questions about their agreement.  The meeting
was to be held January 29th.  A call went out January 22nd for advance
questions to be submitted.

January 25th it was announced that the meeting was postponed in order to
get the right people scheduled to answer the questions that had been
submitted.

The meeting has yet to be rescheduled.
