CeBIT: The word in Hannover is that some German government agencies have switched their allegiance away from SuSE Linux, because following Novell's takeover it is no longer a German company.

Personally I find that SUSE, since the Novell takeover, has definitely improved. Not necessarilly in quality (I don't know if another linux release will ever impress me as much as SUSE 9.0 did), but certainly in generosity towards the users: 9.1, free Personal edition. 9.2, an excellent free DVD iso. You can freely download SLES and Novell Desktop... P2P sharing of SUSE Pro doesn't bother Novell at all (I know what I am talking about)...
Well, if my German friends are really beginning to boycot SUSE simply because it isn't German any longer, I feel sad.
I lived in Germany for quite a while, in several locations, and I find that the German people have two souls: one is extremely generous (and I truly mean it). The other one is a bit nationalistic.
