Evolution Connector for Exchange now free

[Brian Kelsay]

Just imagine that they will get more support contracts and migration contracts.  This is one small 
piece in that process.  You migrate the user desktops to Linux while still using an exchange 
server.  Then when your contract ends on the server, you migrate it to Linux also.  They are just 
banking on it being Suse Linux.

I appreciate this move but I wonder what's in it for them. It's not got
a whole lot of business sense written on it at face value. Maybe the are
trying to generate some good will?

Charging $10/user for Connector would have been the business decision I
would have made.
