About Novell Open Audio

Connecting Novell users with what's going on inside and around the Novell universe.

Show Details

At Novell Open Audio we take you into the back rooms of Software for the Open Enterprise, where you can find Novell's best and brightest technologists. Interviewing hackers and developers, product managers, and even the occasional Novell executive, our team works to expose what Novell technology makes possible and where it is headed next.

Novell Open Audio is a production of Novell Users International in conjunction with Novell. Our staff is comprised of people like you: we think Novell technology is cool. Always has been, always will be. Our show follows input and guidance from our listeners. If you want to request a guest for us to interview or a Novell-related topic to cover, then leave us a message by email, telephone or Skype.

About Us

Ted Haeger

Ted Haeger
Host

A former Certified Novell Instructor, Ted Haeger was a Novell enthusiast long before joining Novell in 1997. Somewhere along the way, proselytizing Novell technology earned him the nickname "Reverend Ted." Hosting Novell Open Audio is one of Ted's many efforts to better connect the people who love Novell software with the people who make it.

Caitlin unlaxes and rewinds in a variety of outdoor activities, but respectfully requests that no one ask about a trip to the emergency room that may or may not have resulted from competing in the Utah Corporate Games for the Novell mountain biking team."
