Rob writes "Microsoft and Novell continue to drip-feed details of their interoperability agreement,
sketching out virtualization, management and compatibility plans for 2007, while Novell
has announced that it can now run Windows unmodified on Linux. While the patent deal has
proved controversial and the reseller deal has seen Microsoft distributing Linux support
vouchers, the interoperability element has received less attention. Looking to rectify
that situation, the two companies have outlined a "roadmap" for
joint development, although delivery dates and technical details are still thin on the
ground."
