They've done the job. Forget all about 3.x / 4.x and even 5.x. No more CLib,
you have now LibC which is a POSIX like API.

AFAIK, they're finishing some usefull APIs, which'll make the port much more
"easy". The "only difference" will be the "threaded model" instead of
process based...

NW6.x already have Apache, bash, gcc, mysql, openssh, vnc, etc... thanks to
this "new architecture".

You can get the 7.2.4 on http://forge.novell.com
