gpl2 forced them to free the source code
mariuz 22nd Jul 2009
In my opinion they need to kill virtualbox, vmware or kvm
(redhat/ubuntu) so it's doesn't matter to throw some lines of
code to the linux kernel via the novell proxy programmers

Here is why again they were forced to free (liberate) the code
http://passthesource.org.nz/2009/07/22/donating-code/
also some boycott novell remarks
