According to that article, it seems Novell South Africa country
manager Stafford Masie had this to say to Ubuntu and Mark
Shuttleworth:

=============
"This deal is not an exclusive arrangement with Microsoft. We are
encouraging Redhat, Ubuntu and others to consider a similar agreement
with Microsoft. We are encouraging them ... especially from a patent
perspective," said Masie.

"We encourage Shuttleworth and the folks to go and do what we've done.
Investigate what we've done. Don't be fanatical about it but take a
look at it," said Masie.
