Is what Ballmer said related to Mono and the recent inclusion of Mono applications in Gnome? Muglia referred that as being part of the Novell deal:
"There is a substantive effort in open source to bring such an implementation of .Net to market, known as Mono and being driven by Novell, and one of the attributes of the agreement we made with Novell is that the intellectual property associated with that is available to Novell customers."
