At OSCON, Novell Relaunches ICEcore as Kablink

In February, Waltham, MA-based Novell acquired SiteScape, a Maynard, MA startup that had created an open-source Web conferencing platform called ICEcore. At the OSCON 2008 open source conference today in Portland, OR, Novell announced that it’s spinning off ICEcore as an independent project under a new name, Kablink. The Kablink software, which has new workflow technologies contributed by Novell, needed a new name “to avoid confusion in the marketplace with first generation technologies,” Novell said in an announcement.
