Does the imminent acquisition of USL by
Novell mean the end of Unix as an open
operating system?
We're asking this question to collect opinions for the "net.views" column in
OPEN SYSTEMS TODAY. Please E-mail your responses to wagner@utoday.com.
By responding to that address, you'll be granting permission to OST to publish

In order to use your response, we'd like to know who you are. Please tell us

alternately, if you're a student, your class standing (freshman, sophomore,

in North America.
Please limit responses to about two full screens (24x80) of text, not including

Responses to net.views will be posted to this space in about two weeks
(FYI, for those interested - A previous net.views question on DEC and

as soon as they slow down coming in.)
Thanks for participating, and we look forward to hearing from you!
