Bill Pray on Elliott/Novell – What Might Happen to GroupWise

11 March 2010 - 12:28pm
this blog (http://ccsblog.burtongroup.com/collaboration_and_content/2010/03/elliottnovell-what-might-happen-to-groupwise.html) by Bill Pray (http://www.burtongroup.com/AboutUs/Bios/PrintBio.aspx?Id=169), previous GroupWise Product Manager, on the future of GroupWise. What-if... The bid by Elliott for Novell has lead to speculation on what may happen should the buyout be successful. Blogs from Drue Reeves (Novell Going Private (http://dcsblog.burtongroup.com/data_center_strategies/2010/03/novell-going-private.html)?) and Richard Jones (Elliott/Novell: Implications on SUSE (http://dcsblog.burtongroup.com/data_center_strategies/2010/03/elliottnovell-implications-on-suse.html)) have highlighted their observations. Having been a former Novell employee and product manager for GroupWise, I want to take the opportunity to add my observations on what might happen to Novell’s communications and collaboration technologies should the buyout occur. GroupWise has been a solid, mature, feature rich, enterprise solution for many years.

Novell update: Letter from Ron Hovsepian

5 March 2010 - 8:13am
Dear Customer: I wanted to contact you personally to address recent news about Novell. Late Tuesday, March 2, Novell received an unsolicited, conditional proposal from Elliott Associates, L.P. to acquire Novell for $5.75 per share in cash. Elliott is an investment firm that holds shares of Novell stock. As you will see in our news release (http://app.mktg.novell.com/e/er.aspx?s=1163 lid=2073 elq=558094b7e90547828736abeb2e2d9b30), we anticipate Novell's Board of Directors will review Elliott's proposal in consultation with Novell's financial and legal advisors. Beyond that, it is business as usual for us at Novell.
